Subject: kasan, mm: perform untagged pointers comparison in krealloc

The krealloc function checks where the same buffer was reused or a new one
allocated by comparing kernel pointers.  Tag-based KASAN changes memory
tag on the krealloc'ed chunk of memory and therefore also changes the
pointer tag of the returned pointer.  Therefore we need to perform
comparison on untagged (with tags reset) pointers to check whether it's
the same memory region or not.
