* The decompressor is built without KASan but uses the same redirects as the
* rest of the kernel when CONFIG_KASAN is enabled, defining e.g. memcpy()
* to __memcpy() but since we are not linking with the main kernel string
* library in the decompressor, that will lead to link failures.
*
* Undefine KASan's versions, define the wrapped functions and alias them to
* the right names so that when e.g. __memcpy() appear in the code, it will
* still be linked to this local version of memcpy().

Annotation
- Immediate include surface: `linux/string.h`.
- Detected declarations: `function strlen`, `function strnlen`, `function memcmp`, `function strcmp`.
- Atlas domain: Architecture Layer / arch/arm.
- Implementation status: source implementation candidate.
Implementation Notes
- This generated page is the file-by-file coverage layer; curated subsystem chapters should link here when they synthesize a multi-file control flow.
- Core OS pages should be promoted from atlas-only to deep-reviewed when they explain data structures, invariants, locking, lifecycle, and C implementation snippets.
- Driver-family pages are intentionally pattern-oriented unless they are part of the selected PCIe/NVMe representative device path.
