    context_tracking: Fix noinstr vs KASAN
    
    [ Upstream commit 0e26e1de0032779e43929174339429c16307a299 ]
    
    Low level noinstr context-tracking code is calling out to instrumented
    code on KASAN:
    
      vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: __ct_user_enter+0x72: call to __kasan_check_write() leaves .noinstr.text section
      vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: __ct_user_exit+0x47: call to __kasan_check_write() leaves .noinstr.text section
    
    Use even lower level atomic methods to avoid the instrumentation.
