As "kcsan: Support detecting a subset of missing memory barriers"[1]
introduced KCSAN_STRICT/KCSAN_WEAK_MEMORY which make kcsan detects
more missing memory barrier, but arm64 don't have KCSAN instrumentation
for barriers, so the new selftest test_barrier() and test cases for
memory barrier instrumentation in kcsan_test module will fail, even
panic on selftest.

Let's prefix all barriers with __ on arm64, as asm-generic/barriers.h
defined the final instrumented version of these barriers, which will
fix the above issues.

Note, barrier instrumentation that can be disabled via __no_kcsan with
appropriate compiler-support (and not just with objtool help), see
commit bd3d5bd1a0ad ("kcsan: Support WEAK_MEMORY with Clang where no
objtool support exists"), it adds disable_sanitizer_instrumentation to
__no_kcsan attribute which will remove all sanitizer instrumentation fully
(with Clang 14.0). Meanwhile, GCC does the same thing with no_sanitize.

Having built this with GCC 12.1.0 and LLVM 14.0.0, I think this patch itself
doesn't introduce any new problems, and logically makes sense. With that in
mind:

As an aside, having scanned the resulting vmlinux with objdump, there are
plenty of latent issues where we get KCSAN instrumentation where we don't want
it (e.g. early/late in arm64's entry-common.o). The bulk of those are due to
missing `nonistr` or `__always_inline`, which we'll need to fix up.

Thanks,
Mark.
