With removed kasan cflags '__SANITIZE_ADDRESS__' is not defined,
hence enable the following defines from arch/x86/include/asm/string_64.h:

#if defined(CONFIG_KASAN) && !defined(__SANITIZE_ADDRESS__)

/*
* For files that not instrumented (e.g. mm/slub.c) we
* should use not instrumented version of mem* functions.
*/

#undef memcpy
#define memcpy(dst, src, len) __memcpy(dst, src, len)
#define memmove(dst, src, len) __memmove(dst, src, len)
#define memset(s, c, n) __memset(s, c, n)
#endif
