ARM64 has asm implementation of memchr(), memcmp(), str[r]chr(), str[n]cmp(), str[n]len(). KASAN don't see memory accesses in asm code, thus it can potentially miss many bugs. Ifdef out __HAVE_ARCH_* defines of these functions when KASAN is enabled, so the generic implementations from lib/string.c will be used. We can't just remove the asm functions because efistub uses them. And we can't have two non-weak functions either, so declare the asm functions as weak.

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.
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.
