The comments for those functions are really poor, but there's nothing
there that says kasan_depth==0 disables KASAN.
Actually, kasan_report_enabled() is currently the only place that
denotes the semantics of kasan_depth, so it couldn't be wrong.

init_task.kasan_depth is 1 during bootstrap and is then set to zero by
kasan_init()
For every other thread, current->kasan_depth is zero-initialized.
