On kernels with KASAN enabled the following failure can be observed as
soon as the zfs module is loaded:
VERIFY(IS_P2ALIGNED(ptr, PAGE_SIZE)) failed
PANIC at spl-kmem-cache.c:228:kv_alloc()
The problem is kmalloc() has never guaranteed aligned allocations; this
requirement resulted in zfsonlinux/spl@8b45dda which removed all
kmalloc() usage in kv_alloc().
Until a GFP_ALIGNED flag (or equivalent functionality) is provided by
the kernel this commit partially reverts 66955885 and 6d948c35 to
prevent k(v)malloc() allocations in kv_alloc().
