Asynchronous KASAN mode doesn't guarantee that a tag fault will be
detected immediately and causes tests to fail. Forbid running them
in asynchronous mode.

I think we have time to fix this properly ;), so I'd rather not add this
patch at all.

Yeah, this patch can be dropped.

I have a prototype of async support for tests working. I'll apply it
on top of the next version Vincenzo posts and share the patch.

Vincenzo, when you post the next version, please make sure you rebase
on top of the mm tree version that includes "kasan: export HW_TAGS
symbols for KUnit tests" (linux-next/akpm doesn't yet have it).
