[PATCH v2] kasan: mark file common so ftrace doesn't trace it

From: Anders Roxell
Date: Wed Dec 12 2018 - 13:36:49 EST


When option CONFIG_KASAN is enabled toghether with ftrace, function
ftrace_graph_caller() gets in to a recursion, via functions
kasan_check_read() and kasan_check_write().

Breakpoint 2, ftrace_graph_caller () at ../arch/arm64/kernel/entry-ftrace.S:179
179 mcount_get_pc x0 // function's pc
(gdb) bt

#9 0xffffff90101406f4 in ftrace_graph_caller () at ../arch/arm64/kernel/entry-ftrace.S:182
Backtrace stopped: previous frame identical to this frame (corrupt stack?)
(gdb)

Rework so that the kasan implementation isn't traced.
