[PATCH v5 2/2] kasan: Make addr_has_metadata() return true for valid addresses

Currently, addr_has_metadata() returns true for every address.
An invalid address (e.g. NULL) passed to the function when,
KASAN_HW_TAGS is enabled, leads to a kernel panic.
Make addr_has_metadata() return true for valid addresses only.
Note: KASAN_HW_TAGS support for vmalloc will be added with a future
patch.
