Similar to commit 09c6304e38 ("kasan: test: fix compatibility with
FORTIFY_SOURCE") the kernel is panicing in kmalloc_oob_memset_*.
This is due to the `ptr` not being hidden from the optimizer which would
disable the runtime fortify string checker.
kernel BUG at lib/string_helpers.c:1048!
Call Trace:
[<00000000272502e2>] fortify_panic+0x2a/0x30
([<00000000272502de>] fortify_panic+0x26/0x30)
[<001bffff817045c4>] kmalloc_oob_memset_2+0x22c/0x230 [kasan_test]
Hide the `ptr` variable from the optimizer to fix the kernel panic. Also
define a memset_size variable and hide that as well. This cleans up the
code and follows the same convention as other tests.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
