It is easier to read now, and indeed GCC 5.1+ and LLVM 13+ both
support the flags, so `CFLAGS_KASAN_SHADOW` can't be empty.

I guess "a normal --param" means here that it is the usual way to
tweak the rest of the KASAN parameters, right?

I think the "with" sounds strange, but I am not a native speaker.
Perhaps "in a similar way with" -> "similarly in both"?

Thanks!
