From: Jiri Kosina <jkosina@xxxxxxx> The typical KASAN report always begins with BUG: KASAN: .... in kernel log. That 'BUG:' prefix creates a false impression that it's an actual BUG() codepath being executed, and as such things like 'panic_on_oops' etc. would work on it as expected; but that's obviously not the case. Switch the order of prefixes to make this distinction clear and avoid confusion.
