[PATCH v2] kasan: turn on -fsanitize-address-use-after-scope

From: Andrey Ryabinin
Date: Thu Dec 08 2016 - 12:12:18 EST


In the upcoming gcc7 release, the -fsanitize=kernel-address option
at first implied new -fsanitize-address-use-after-scope option.
This would cause link errors on older kernels because they don't have
two new functions required for use-after-scope support. Therefore,
gcc7 changed default to -fno-sanitize-address-use-after-scope.

Now the kernel has everything required for that feature since
commit 828347f8f9a5 ("kasan: support use-after-scope detection").
So, to make it work, we just have to enable use-after-scope in CFLAGS.
