From: Dmitry Vyukov <dvyukov@google.com>

commit 045d599a286bc01daa3510d59272440a17b23c2e upstream.

kasan_global struct is part of compiler/runtime ABI.  gcc revision
241983 has added a new field to kasan_global struct.  Update kernel
definition of kasan_global struct to include the new field.

Without this patch KASAN is broken with gcc 7.
