Alexander Potapenko d321599cf6 kasan: add functions for unpoisoning stack variables
As a code-size optimization, LLVM builds since r279383 may bulk-manipulate
the shadow region when (un)poisoning large memory blocks.  This requires
new callbacks that simply do an uninstrumented memset().

This fixes linking the Clang-built kernel when using KASAN.

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
