[Devel] [PATCH 4/4] kasan: introduce single-shot mode and enable it by default

[Andrey Ryabinin]

The first error is always the most significant. The following
errors usually are the consequences of the first or duplicates.

This introduces single-shot mode, which means that we will print
only the first error. It's enabled by default, but user
still can switch to the old behavior via 'kasan_print_till_death'
boot option.
