Subject: [PATCH v6 10/11] kmemleak: disable kasan instrumentation for kmemleak

kmalloc internally round up allocation size, and kmemleak
uses rounded up size as object's size. This makes kasan
to complain while kmemleak scans memory or calculates of object's
checksum. The simplest solution here is to disable kasan.
