[PATCH v9 1/6] kasan: allow an architecture to disable inline instrumentation

[Daniel Axtens]

For annoying architectural reasons, it's very difficult to support inline
instrumentation on powerpc64.

Add a Kconfig flag to allow an arch to disable inline. (It's a bit
annoying to be 'backwards', but I'm not aware of any way to have
an arch force a symbol to be 'n', rather than 'y'.)
