When booting with 'kasan.vmalloc=off', a kernel configured with support for KASAN_HW_TAGS will explode at boot time due to bogus use of virt_to_page() on a vmalloc adddress. With CONFIG_DEBUG_VIRTUAL selected this will be reported explicitly, and with or without CONFIG_DEBUG_VIRTUAL the kernel will dereference a bogus address:

This is because init_vmalloc_pages() erroneously calls virt_to_page() on a vmalloc address, while virt_to_page() is only valid for addresses in the linear/direct map. Since init_vmalloc_pages() expects virtual addresses in the vmalloc range, it must use vmalloc_to_page() rather than virt_to_page().
We call init_vmalloc_pages() from __kasan_unpoison_vmalloc(), where we check !is_vmalloc_or_module_addr(), suggesting that we might encounter a non-vmalloc address. Luckily, this never happens. By design, we only call __kasan_unpoison_vmalloc() on pointers in the vmalloc area, and I have verified that we don't violate that expectation. Given that, is_vmalloc_or_module_addr() must always be true for any legitimate argument to __kasan_unpoison_vmalloc().
Correct init_vmalloc_pages() to use vmalloc_to_page(), and remove the redundant and misleading use of is_vmalloc_or_module_addr() in __kasan_unpoison_vmalloc().
