[PATCH v2] kasan: fix deadlock in start_report()

From: Weizhao Ouyang
Date: Wed Feb 08 2023 - 22:29:15 EST

Calling start_report() again between start_report() and end_report()
will result in a race issue for the report_lock. In extreme cases this
problem arose in Kunit tests in the hardware tag-based Kasan mode.

For example, when an invalid memory release problem is found,
kasan_report_invalid_free() will print error log, but if an MTE exception
is raised during the output log, the kasan_report() is called, resulting
in a deadlock problem. The kasan_depth not protect it in hardware
tag-based Kasan mode.
