Subject: kasan, arm64: don't instrument functions that enable kasan

This patch prepares Software Tag-Based KASAN for stack tagging support.

With stack tagging enabled, KASAN tags stack variable in each function in
its prologue.  In start_kernel() stack variables get tagged before KASAN
is enabled via setup_arch()->kasan_init().  As the result the tags for
start_kernel()'s stack variables end up in the temporary shadow memory. 
Later when KASAN gets enabled, switched to normal shadow, and starts
checking tags, this leads to false-positive reports, as proper tags are
missing in normal shadow.

Disable KASAN instrumentation for start_kernel().  Also disable it for
arm64's setup_arch() as a precaution (it doesn't have any stack variables
right now).
