I'm not sufficiently familiar with KASAN to be able to interpret this.
Perhaps Andrey can shed some light?

The lack of symbol decoding is a problem.

CONFIG_KALLSYMS=y
CONFIG_KALLSYMS_ALL=y
CONFIG_KALLSYMS_BASE_RELATIVE=y

It should be there.  Perhaps it is not because this error is itself
(possibly) related to kallsyms changes?


Probably. I had seen something similar (crash and no symbols) with an earlier 
version of the patch,
if the symbols were not created. There might be a message in the log, 
indicating that kallsyms
failed to generate the symbols.
