I thought the EFI stub isolation patches create a copy of mem*() functions in the stub,
but they are just create aliases with __efistub_ prefix.

We only need to create some more aliases for KASAN.
The following patch on top of the EFI stub isolation series works for me.

Ard's v4 stub isolation series has these aliases [1], as the stub
requires these aliases regardless of KASAN in order to link.

Stub isolation series has __efistub_memcpy, not __efistub___memcpy
(two additional '_').
The thing is, KASAN provides own implementation of memcpy() which
checks memory before access.
The original 'memcpy()' becomes __memcpy(), so we could still use it.
In code that not instrumented by KASAN (like the EFI stub) we replace
KASAN's memcpy() with the original __mempcy():
#define memcpy() __memcpy()

So with CONFIG_KASAN=y the EFI stub uses __memcpy, thus we need to
create the __efistub___memcpy alias.

Thanks,
Mark.
