[PATCH master 1/2] KASan: test_kasan: silence warning with newer GCC

Newer GCC will rightly complain about this being an out-of-bounds
access. This is intended as the kasan command is meant to cause
out-of-bounds accesses to test proper operation of KASan.

Thus silence the warning for this specific instance.
