I tried to debug this but kasan doesn't print much useful information
for stack out of bounds access. It shows the address that's being
accessed but it doesn't show the value of the boundary that was
exceeded. And the stack dump doesn't show any addresses either - just
contents. It would be nice to see a full stack frame dump showing
where all the parent frames are too. Also too the file and line number
(lib/iov_iter.c:511) are completely useless because of inlining,
though that's not kasan's fault.
