David Gow be4f1ae978 mm: kasan: do not panic if both panic_on_warn and kasan_multishot set
KASAN errors will currently trigger a panic when panic_on_warn is set.
This renders kasan_multishot useless, as further KASAN errors won't be
reported if the kernel has already paniced.  By making kasan_multishot
disable this behaviour for KASAN errors, we can still have the benefits of
panic_on_warn for non-KASAN warnings, yet be able to use kasan_multishot.

This is particularly important when running KASAN tests, which need to
trigger multiple KASAN errors: previously these would panic the system if
panic_on_warn was set, now they can run (and will panic the system should
non-KASAN warnings show up).

README

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

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

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.
