The KASAN report is between the following lines in dmesg:

[    0.003333]  Offload RCU callbacks from CPUs: .
[    0.003333] 
==================================================================
[    0.003333] 
==================================================================
[    0.003333] BUG: KASAN: use-after-scope in console_unlock+0x185/0x960
[    0.003333] BUG: KASAN: use-after-scope in console_unlock+0x185/0x960
[...]
[    0.003333] console [ttyS0] enabled

The first message is printed from rcu_init_nohz().
The last message is printed from register_console().

I would expect that the KASAN message is triggered from the following
code:

        rcu_init_nohz();
        init_timers();
        hrtimers_init();
        softirq_init();
        timekeeping_init();
        time_init();
        sched_clock_postinit();
        printk_safe_init();
        perf_event_init();
        profile_init();
        call_function_init();
        WARN(!irqs_disabled(), "Interrupts were enabled early\n");
        early_boot_irqs_disabled = false;
        local_irq_enable();

        kmem_cache_init_late();

        /*
         * HACK ALERT! This is early. We're enabling the console before
         * we've done PCI setups etc, and console_init() must be aware of
         * this. But we do want output early, in case something goes wrong.
         */
        console_init();


I am just confused that I do not see any of this function on the
stack. Note that this code is still called in the single CPU mode.

I feel lost a bit.

I am really curious what code is proceed on the line
console_unlock+0x185/0x960.
