[PATCH v2] x86: Fix build of UML with KASAN

Building UML with KASAN fails since commit 69d4c0d32186 ("entry, kasan,
x86: Disallow overriding mem*() functions") with the following errors:

 $ tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py run --kconfig_add CONFIG_KASAN=y
 ...
 ld: mm/kasan/shadow.o: in function `memset':
 shadow.c:(.text+0x40): multiple definition of `memset';
 arch/x86/lib/memset_64.o:(.noinstr.text+0x0): first defined here
 ld: mm/kasan/shadow.o: in function `memmove':
 shadow.c:(.text+0x90): multiple definition of `memmove';
 arch/x86/lib/memmove_64.o:(.noinstr.text+0x0): first defined here
 ld: mm/kasan/shadow.o: in function `memcpy':
 shadow.c:(.text+0x110): multiple definition of `memcpy';
 arch/x86/lib/memcpy_64.o:(.noinstr.text+0x0): first defined here

UML does not use GENERIC_ENTRY and is still supposed to be allowed to
override the mem*() functions, so use weak aliases in that case.
