This looks good to me.  A better approach would have been what you said
in another thread:

    | much better would be just say a testcase that would include the
    | sanitizer + kernel headers, guarded by recent enough LINUX_VERSION_CODE
    | or configure or similar, so it wouldn't prevent library build on older
    | kernel headers, the kernel ABI better be stable (only new things added,
    | not size of structures/magic constants etc. changed from time to time).

But because of:

    | But Kostya is apparently not willing to do that, so this patch
    | provides a workaround in non-compiler-rt maintained files.

Let's get this in then :-)
