seqlock: Allow KASAN to fail optimizing
Some KASAN builds are failing to properly optimize this code -- luckily we don't care about core quality for KASAN builds, so just exclude it. Reported-by: kernel test robot <lkp@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/oe-kbuild-all/202510251641.idrNXhv5-lkp@intel.com/
