[PATCH] arm64: Use larger stacks when KASAN is selected

[Mark Rutland]

AddressSanitizer instrumentation can significantly bloat the stack, and
with GCC 7 this can result in stack overflows at boot time in some
configurations.

We can avoid this by doubling our stack size when KASAN is in use, as is
already done on x86 (and has been since KASAN was introduced).
Regardless of other patches to decrease KASAN's stack utilization,
kernels built with KASAN will always require more stack space than those
built without, and we should take this into account.

In local testing (with KASAN and other options enabled), I've seen a stack
depth of 23928 bytes while booting to a prompt with an Ubuntu 14.04 filesystem
mounted over NFS. Without KASAN (but with other debug options enabled), this
was 7992 bytes.

I wonder if we want to go for 4x rather than 2x...

Thanks,
Mark.
