    ms/x86, efi, kasan: #undef memset/memcpy/memmove per arch
    
    commit 769a8089c1fd2fe94c13e66fe6e03d7820953ee3 upstream.
    
    In not-instrumented code KASAN replaces instrumented memset/memcpy/memmove
    with not-instrumented analogues __memset/__memcpy/__memove.
    
    However, on x86 the EFI stub is not linked with the kernel.  It uses
    not-instrumented mem*() functions from arch/x86/boot/compressed/string.c
    
    So we don't replace them with __mem*() variants in EFI stub.
    
    On ARM64 the EFI stub is linked with the kernel, so we should replace
    mem*() functions with __mem*(), because the EFI stub runs before KASAN
    sets up early shadow.
    
    So let's move these #undef mem* into arch's asm/efi.h which is also
    included by the EFI stub.
    
    Also, this will fix the warning in 32-bit build reported by kbuild test
    robot:
    
    	efi-stub-helper.c:599:2: warning: implicit declaration of function 'memcpy'
