Subject: [PATCH 4.14 13/75] kasan: prevent compiler from optimizing away memset in tests

From: Andrey Konovalov <andreyknvl@...gle.com>

commit 69ca372c100fba99c78ef826a1795aa86e4f01a8 upstream.

A compiler can optimize away memset calls by replacing them with mov
instructions.  There are KASAN tests that specifically test that KASAN
correctly handles memset calls so we don't want this optimization to
happen.

The solution is to add -fno-builtin flag to test_kasan.ko
