That's reasonable, given it's already done for test_kasan.o.

Although the warnings only occur because it's including
"../mm/kasan/kasan.h", which include declarations for the
instrumentation functions. AFAIK, those declarations only exist to
avoid missing-declaration warnings; in which case all of them could
just be moved above their definitions in generic.c (which would also
avoid some repetition for the ones defined with macros). But given the
various other KASAN patches in-flight, to avoid conflicts let's leave
this as-is, but it's something to improve in case we wanted to get rid
of the fno-builtin.
