39d114ddc6 arm64: add KASAN support
This patch adds arch specific code for kernel address sanitizer
(see Documentation/kasan.txt).

1/8 of kernel addresses reserved for shadow memory. There was no
big enough hole for this, so virtual addresses for shadow were
stolen from vmalloc area.

At early boot stage the whole shadow region populated with just
one physical page (kasan_zero_page). Later, this page reused
as readonly zero shadow for some memory that KASan currently
don't track (vmalloc).
After mapping the physical memory, pages for shadow memory are
allocated and mapped.

Functions like memset/memmove/memcpy do a lot of memory accesses.
If bad pointer passed to one of these function it is important
to catch this. Compiler's instrumentation cannot do this since
these functions are written in assembly.
KASan replaces memory functions with manually instrumented variants.
Original functions declared as weak symbols so strong definitions
in mm/kasan/kasan.c could replace them. Original functions have aliases
with '__' prefix in name, so we could call non-instrumented variant
if needed.
Some files built without kasan instrumentation (e.g. mm/slub.c).
Original mem* function replaced (via #define) with prefixed variants
to disable memory access checks for such files.

207918461e arm64: use ENDPIPROC() to annotate position independent assembler routines
For more control over which functions are called with the MMU off or
with the UEFI 1:1 mapping active, annotate some assembler routines as
position independent. This is done by introducing ENDPIPROC(), which
replaces the ENDPROC() declaration of those routines.

e5c88e3f2f arm64: Change memcpy in kernel to use the copy template file
This converts the memcpy.S to use the copy template file. The copy
template file was based originally on the memcpy.S

4a8992271c arm64: klib: Optimised memory functions
This patch introduces AArch64-specific memory functions (memcpy,
memmove, memchr, memset). These functions are not optimised for any CPU
implementation but can be used as a starting point once hardware is
available.
