Kefeng Wang 4742f48a5a BACKPORT: arm64: Enable KCSAN
This patch enables KCSAN for arm64, with updates to build rules
to not use KCSAN for several incompatible compilation units.

Recent GCC version(at least GCC10) made outline-atomics as the
default option(unlike Clang), which will cause linker errors
for kernel/kcsan/core.o. Disables the out-of-line atomics by
no-outline-atomics to fix the linker errors.

Meanwhile, as Mark said[1], some latent issues are needed to be
fixed which isn't just a KCSAN problem, we make the KCSAN depends
on EXPERT for now.

Tested selftest and kcsan_test(built with GCC11 and Clang 13),
and all passed.
