[ Upstream commit b6cbe3e8bdff6f21f1b58b08a55f479cdcf98282 ]
Kasan instrumentation adds "store" check for variables marked as
modified by inline assembly. With user pointers containing addresses
from another address space this produces false positives.
static inline unsigned long clear_user_xc(void __user *to, ...)
{
asm volatile(
...
: "+a" (to) ...
User space access functions are wrapped by manually instrumented
functions in kasan common code, which should be sufficient to catch
errors. So, we just disable uaccess.o instrumentation altogether.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
