kprobes: Avoid false KASAN reports during stack copy

Kprobes save and restore raw stack chunks with memcpy().
With KASAN these chunks can contain poisoned stack redzones,
as the result memcpy() interceptor produces false
stack out-of-bounds reports.

Use __memcpy() instead of memcpy() for stack copying.
__memcpy() is not instrumented by KASAN and does not lead
to the false reports.

Currently there is a spew of KASAN reports during boot
if CONFIG_KPROBES_SANITY_TEST is enabled:
