Subject[PATCH] lkdtm: disable KASAN for rodata.o
From
Building lkdtm with KASAN and Clang 11 or later results in the following
error when attempting to load the module:

kernel tried to execute NX-protected page - exploit attempt? (uid: 0)
BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffffffc019cd70
#PF: supervisor instruction fetch in kernel mode
#PF: error_code(0x0011) - permissions violation
...
RIP: 0010:asan.module_ctor+0x0/0xffffffffffffa290 [lkdtm]
...
Call Trace:
do_init_module+0x17c/0x570
load_module+0xadee/0xd0b0
__x64_sys_finit_module+0x16c/0x1a0
do_syscall_64+0x34/0x50
entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xa9

The reason is that rodata.o generates a dummy function that lives in
.rodata to validate that .rodata can't be executed; however, Clang 11
adds KASAN globals support by generating module constructors to
initialize globals redzones. When Clang 11 adds a module constructor to
rodata.o, it is also added to .rodata: any attempt to call it on
initialization results in the above error.

Therefore, disable KASAN instrumentation for rodata.o.
