Thanks Paul. Yeah, with KASAN, tif_resched() transforms into this out of
line function:
ffffffff810fec20 <tif_resched.constprop.0>:
ffffffff810fec20: e8 5b c6 20 00 call ffffffff8130b280 <__sanitizer_cov_trace_pc>
ffffffff810fec25: b8 03 00 00 00 mov $0x3,%eax
ffffffff810fec2a: e9 71 56 61 01 jmp ffffffff827142a0 <__x86_return_thunk>
ffffffff810fec2f: 90 nop

Builds fine with Thomas' suggested fix.
