[PATCH v2] kasan: support panic_on_warn

From: Dmitry Vyukov
Date: Mon Oct 17 2016 - 04:59:43 EST


If user sets panic_on_warn, he wants kernel to panic if there is
anything barely wrong with the kernel. KASAN-detected errors
are definitely not less benign than an arbitrary kernel WARNING.

Panic after KASAN errors if panic_on_warn is set.

We use this for continuous fuzzing where we want kernel to stop
and reboot on any error.
