kfence: add note to documentation about skipping covered allocations
mainline inclusion from mainline-v5.16-rc1 commit 5cc906b4 category: feature bugzilla: 185780 https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I4EUY7 Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=5cc906b4b4a510b274113ddb3f88d60644553f79 ----------------------------------------------- Add a note briefly mentioning the new policy about "skipping currently covered allocations if pool close to full." Since this has a notable impact on KFENCE's bug-detection ability on systems with large uptimes, it is worth pointing out the feature.
