Subject: mm/kmemleak: silence KCSAN splats in checksum

Even if KCSAN is disabled for kmemleak, update_checksum() could still call
crc32() (which is outside of kmemleak.c) to dereference object->pointer. 
Thus, the value of object->pointer could be accessed concurrently as
noticed by KCSAN,

 BUG: KCSAN: data-race in crc32_le_base / do_raw_spin_lock

 write to 0xffffb0ea683a7d50 of 4 bytes by task 23575 on cpu 12:
  do_raw_spin_lock+0x114/0x200

 read to 0xffffb0ea683a7d50 of 4 bytes by task 839 on cpu 60:
  crc32_le_base+0x67/0x350
  crc32_le_base+0x67/0x350:

  (inlined by) crc32_le_generic at lib/crc32.c:179
  (inlined by) crc32_le at lib/crc32.c:197
  kmemleak_scan+0x528/0xd90

  kmemleak_scan_thread+0xcc/0xfa
  kthread+0x1e0/0x200
  ret_from_fork+0x27/0x50

If a shattered value was returned due to a data race, it will be corrected
in the next scan.  Thus, let KCSAN ignore all reads in the region to
silence KCSAN in case the write side is non-atomic.
