GCC has support to rename memcpy/memset etc. for years, say on
following compiled with
-fsanitize=kernel-address -O2 -mstringop-strategy=libcall
(the last option just to make sure the compiler doesn't prefer to emit
rep mov*/stos* or loop or something similar, of course kernel can keep
whatever it uses) you'll get just __asan_memcpy/__asan_memset calls,
no memcpy/memset, while without -fsanitize=kernel-address you get
normally memcpy/memset.
Or do you need the __asan_* functions only in asan instrumented functions
and normal ones in non-instrumented functions in the same TU?

#ifdef __SANITIZE_ADDRESS__
extern __typeof (__builtin_memcpy) memcpy __asm ("__asan_memcpy");
extern __typeof (__builtin_memset) memset __asm ("__asan_memset");
#endif
struct S { char a[2048]; } a, b;

void
foo (void)
{
a = b;
b = (struct S) {};
}

void
bar (void *p, void *q, int s)
{
memcpy (p, q, s);
}

void
baz (void *p, int c, int s)
{
memset (p, c, s);
}

void
qux (void *p, void *q, int s)
{
__builtin_memcpy (p, q, s);
}

void
quux (void *p, int c, int s)
{
__builtin_memset (p, c, s);
}
