OK, I got that to compile; the next problem is:

../include/linux/kasan.h:90:1: error: built-in function ‘__asan_loadN_noabort’ must be directly called
UACCESS_SAFE(__asan_loadN_noabort);

Which doesn't make any sense; since we actually generated that symbol,
it clearly is not built-in. What gives?
