Subject: [PATCH 1/1] kasan: Support for r/w instrumentation control

This provide option to control sanity of read and write operations
Both read and write instrumentation increase size of uImage, So using
this option read or write instrumentation can be avoided if not required.
Useful in case of module sanity, using this uImage sanity can be avoided.

Also user space ASAN provides this support for read/write instrumentation
control.
