Seems something is giving it indigestion regarding asmlinkage...

In file included from ./include/linux/kasan.h:15,
                 from arch/arm/mm/kasan_init.c:11:

    kasan: shadow declarations only for software modes

Looks like it's this chunk:

-#include <linux/pgtable.h>
 #include <asm/kasan.h>

Testing shows putting that #include back in makes it compile correctly,
but it's not obvious why putting that back makes 'asmlinkage' recognized.

"You are in a twisty little maze of #includes, all different"... :)
