[PATCH 1/3] kasan: allow kasan_check_read/write() to accept pointers to volatiles

[Dmitry Vyukov <dvyukov@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Currently kasan_check_read/write() accept 'const void*', make them
accept 'const volatile void*'. This is required for instrumentation
of atomic operations and there is just no reason to not allow that.
