Instrument copy_from_kernel_nofault() with KMSAN for uninitialized kernel
memory check and copy_to_kernel_nofault() with KASAN, KCSAN to detect the
memory corruption.
syzbot reported that bpf_probe_read_kernel() kernel helper triggered KASAN
report via kasan_check_range() which is not the expected behaviour as
copy_from_kernel_nofault() is meant to be a non-faulting helper.
Solution is, suggested by Marco Elver, to replace KASAN, KCSAN check in
copy_from_kernel_nofault() with KMSAN detection of copying uninitilaized
kernel memory. In copy_to_kernel_nofault() we can retain
instrument_write() explicitly for the memory corruption instrumentation.
copy_to_kernel_nofault() is tested on x86_64 and arm64 with
CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS. On arm64 with CONFIG_KASAN_HW_TAGS, kunit test
currently fails. Need more clarification on it.
