Since the function __kasan_kmalloc is only used in kasan module,
remove EXPORT_SYMBOL to this function.

This is incorrect, see below.

Sorry, but this will break all users of kmalloc() with KASAN on if
!TRACING:

*module users.

An allmodconfig but with CONFIG_TRACING=n will probably show you the problem.

Follow your advice, I changed CONFIG_TRACING=n in .config. Then I run "make -jxx modules".
But CONFIG_TRACING is changed to y. 
So what you mentioned does not appear.
