kasan: fix bug type classification for SW_TAGS mode
kasan_non_canonical_hook() derives orig_addr from kasan_shadow_to_mem(),
but the pointer tag may remain in the top byte. In SW_TAGS mode this
tagged address is compared against PAGE_SIZE and TASK_SIZE, which leads to
incorrect bug classification.
As a result, NULL pointer dereferences may be reported as
"wild-memory-access".
Strip the tag before performing these range checks and use the untagged
value when reporting addresses in these ranges.
Before:
[ ] Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address ffef800000000000
[ ] KASAN: maybe wild-memory-access in range [0xff00000000000000-0xff0000000000000f]
After:
[ ] Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address ffef800000000000
[ ] KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x0000000000000000-0x000000000000000f]
