From: Jiri Kosina <jkosina@xxxxxxx>
Subject: kasan: distinguish kasan report from generic BUG()

The typical KASAN report always begins with

	BUG: KASAN: ....

in kernel log.  That 'BUG:' prefix creates a false impression that it's an
actual BUG() codepath being executed, and as such things like
'panic_on_oops' etc.  would work on it as expected; but that's obviously
not the case.

Switch the order of prefixes to make this distinction clear and avoid
confusion.
