Alexander Potapenko a571b272ab lib/stackdepot.c: use a non-instrumented version of memcmp()
stackdepot used to call memcmp(), which compiler tools normally
instrument, therefore every lookup used to unnecessarily call instrumented
code.  This is somewhat ok in the case of KASAN, but under KMSAN a lot of
time was spent in the instrumentation.

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
