IIUC as of this patch a user can select KASAN_SW_TAGS...

... and therefore we start using the compiler option, even though we
haven't introduced all of the necessary infrastructure yet.

That doesn't sound right to me. At the very least, that breaks
randconfig builds.

What we can do, in-order, is:

1) introduce the core refactoring, dependent on HAVE_ARCH_KASAN_SW_TAGS
2) instroduce the new infrastructure and arch code
3) select HAVE_ARCH_KASAN_SW_TAGS

... such that at (3), all KASAN configurations are known to work.

Thanks,
Mark.
