I am somewhat confused by the terminology.
"KASAN" is not actually "CONFIG_KASAN" below, it is actually
"CONFIG_KASAN_GENERIC". While "KHWASAN" translates to "KASAN_HW" few
lines later.
I think we need some consistent terminology for comments and config
names until it's too late.

As per offline discussion will rename in v7.
