When running KASAN with Tiny RCU (e.g. under ARCH=um, where
a working KASAN patch is now available), we don't get any
information on the original kfree_rcu() (or similar) caller
when a problem is reported, as Tiny RCU doesn't record this.

Add the recording, which required pulling kvfree_call_rcu()
out of line for the KASAN case since the recording function
(kasan_record_aux_stack_noalloc) is neither exported, nor
can we include kasan.h into rcutiny.h.

without KASAN, the patch has no size impact (ARCH=um kernel):

6151515 4423154 33148520 43723189 29b29b5 linux + patch

with KASAN, the impact on my build was minimal:

For the !head case; similar to Tree RCU's kvfree_call_rcu() implementation, we do not need to record 'ptr' (which will be 'func')?


Thanks
