The call to kasan_release_vmalloc() is a static inline no-op if
CONFIG_KASAN_VMALLOC is not defined, which I thought was the preferred
way to do things rather than sprinkling the code with ifdefs?

The complier should be smart enough to eliminate all the
orig_state/orig_end stuff at compile time because it can see that it's
not used, so there's no cost in the binary.

Daniel
