x86/asm: Fix build of UML with KASAN
[ Upstream commit 10f4c9b9a33b7df000f74fa0d896351fb1a61e6a ]
Building UML with KASAN fails since commit 69d4c0d32186 ("entry, kasan,
x86: Disallow overriding mem*() functions") with the following errors:
$ tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py run --kconfig_add CONFIG_KASAN=y
...
ld: mm/kasan/shadow.o: in function `memset':
shadow.c:(.text+0x40): multiple definition of `memset';
arch/x86/lib/memset_64.o:(.noinstr.text+0x0): first defined here
ld: mm/kasan/shadow.o: in function `memmove':
shadow.c:(.text+0x90): multiple definition of `memmove';
arch/x86/lib/memmove_64.o:(.noinstr.text+0x0): first defined here
ld: mm/kasan/shadow.o: in function `memcpy':
shadow.c:(.text+0x110): multiple definition of `memcpy';
arch/x86/lib/memcpy_64.o:(.noinstr.text+0x0): first defined here
UML does not use GENERIC_ENTRY and is still supposed to be allowed to
override the mem*() functions, so use weak aliases in that case.
Fixes: 69d4c0d32186 ("entry, kasan, x86: Disallow overriding mem*() functions")
