objtool: Permit __kasan_check_{read,write} under UACCESS

Building linux-next with JUMP_LABEL=n and KASAN=y, I got this objtool
warning:

arch/x86/lib/copy_mc.o: warning: objtool: copy_mc_to_user()+0x22: call to
__kasan_check_read() with UACCESS enabled

What happens here is that copy_mc_to_user() branches on a static key in a
UACCESS region:

        __uaccess_begin();
        if (static_branch_unlikely(&copy_mc_fragile_key))
                ret = copy_mc_fragile(to, from, len);
        ret = copy_mc_generic(to, from, len);
        __uaccess_end();

and the !CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL version of static_branch_unlikely() uses
static_key_enabled(), which uses static_key_count(), which uses
atomic_read(), which calls instrument_atomic_read(), which uses
kasan_check_read(), which is __kasan_check_read().

Let's permit these KASAN helpers in UACCESS regions - static keys should
probably work under UACCESS, I think.

PeterZ adds:

  It's not a matter of permitting, it's a matter of being safe and
  correct. In this case it is, because it's a thin wrapper around
  check_memory_region() which was already marked safe.

  check_memory_region() is correct because the only thing it ends up
  calling is kasa_report() and that is also marked safe because that is
  annotated with user_access_save/restore() before it does anything else.

  On top of that, all of KASAN is noinstr, so nothing in here will end up
  in tracing and/or call schedule() before the user_access_save().
