Subject: [RFC/PATCH -next 17/21] arm: add kasan hooks fort
 memcpy/memmove/memset functions

Since functions memset, memmove, memcpy are written in assembly,
compiler can't instrument memory accesses inside them.

This patch replaces these functions with our own instrumented
functions (kasan_mem*) for CONFIG_KASAN = y

In rare circumstances you may need to use the original functions,
in such case put #undef KASAN_HOOKS before includes.
