restore_processor_state/__restore_processor_state does not seem to
have any local variables, so KASAN does not do any stack checks there.
We could disable KASAN instrumentation of the file, or of particular
functions. Or we could call kasan_unpoison_shadow() on the stack range
before switching to it.
