locking/lockdep: Add kasan_check_byte() check in lock_acquire()
KASAN instrumentation of lockdep has been disabled, as we don't need KASAN to check the validity of lockdep internal data structures and incur unnecessary performance overhead. However, the lockdep_map pointer passed in externally may not be valid (e.g. use-after-free) and we run the risk of using garbage data resulting in false lockdep reports. Add kasan_check_byte() call in lock_acquire() for non kernel core data object to catch invalid lockdep_map and print out a KASAN report before any lockdep splat, if any.
