Page table walkers trigger soft lockups below with KASAN_SW_TAGS outline mode on a large ThunderX2 system, because there is too much overhead to call check_memory_region() for every memory access where it needs to dereference every byte of the corresponding KASAN shadow address for the correct tag.
