kasan/test: fix protection against compiler elision
The kunit test is using assignments to "static volatile void *kasan_ptr_result" to prevent elision of memory loads, but that's not working: In this variable definition, the "volatile" applies to the "void", not to the pointer. To make "volatile" apply to the pointer as intended, it must follow after the "*". This makes the kasan_memchr test pass again on my system. The kasan_strings test is still failing because all the definitions of load_unaligned_zeropad() are lacking explicit instrumentation hooks and ASAN does not instrument asm() memory operands.
