"BUG: KASAN: invalid-access"

It also might make sense to pass the ip, even though it's not exactly

pr_err("BUG: KASAN: invalid-access in %pS\n", (void *)ip);

Up to you.

pr_err("Asynchronous mode enabled: no access details available\n");

This approach with a dedicated function is better. Thanks, Mark!

Please put it next to kasan_report_invalid_free().
