Subject[PATCH 5.15 008/277] kfence: count unexpectedly skipped allocations
Date
From: Marco Elver <elver@google.com>

[ Upstream commit 9a19aeb5665068c3e2727230588684aae2cab7ef ]

Maintain a counter to count allocations that are skipped due to being
incompatible (oversized, incompatible gfp flags) or no capacity.

This is to compute the fraction of allocations that could not be
serviced by KFENCE, which we expect to be rare.
