Subject: kasan: prevent compiler from optimizing away memset in tests
A compiler can optimize away memset calls by replacing them with mov
instructions. There are KASAN tests that specifically test that KASAN
correctly handles memset calls so we don't want this optimization to
happen.
The solution is to add -fno-builtin flag to test_kasan.ko
