commit 0e410e158e5baa1300bdf678cea4f4e0cf9d8b94 upstream.

With KASAN enabled the kernel has two different memset() functions, one
with KASAN checks (memset) and one without (__memset).  KASAN uses some
macro tricks to use the proper version where required.  For example
memset() calls in mm/slub.c are without KASAN checks, since they operate
on poisoned slab object metadata.

The issue is that clang emits memset() calls even when there is no
memset() in the source code.  They get linked with improper memset()
implementation and the kernel fails to boot due to a huge amount of KASAN
reports during early boot stages.

The solution is to add -fno-builtin flag for files with KASAN_SANITIZE :=
n marker.

Starting with gcc-8.1, we get a warning about all system call definitions,
which use an alias between functions with incompatible prototypes, e.g.:

In file included from ../mm/process_vm_access.c:19:
../include/linux/syscalls.h:211:18: warning: 'sys_process_vm_readv' alias between functions of incompatible types 'long int(pid_t,  const struct iovec *, long unsigned int,  const struct iovec *, long unsigned int,  long unsigned int)' {aka 'long int(int,  const struct iovec *, long unsigned int,  const struct iovec *, long unsigned int,  long unsigned int)'} and 'long int(long int,  long int,  long int,  long int,  long int,  long int)' [-Wattribute-alias]

 ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 SYSCALL_DEFINE6(process_vm_readv, pid_t, pid, const struct iovec __user *, lvec,

This is really noisy and does not indicate a real problem. In the latest
mainline kernel, this was addressed by commit bee20031772a ("disable
-Wattribute-alias warning for SYSCALL_DEFINEx()"), which seems too invasive
to backport.

This takes a much simpler approach and just disables the warning across the
kernel.
