    Drop it please. It increases kernel stack up to 4-order which is above PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER.
    This changes behavior of the fork() by making it fail with -ENOMEM due of high memory fragmentation.

    The patch that removes KASAN_EXTRA (not in Linus's tree yet) would be a better fix for the problem.
