mm:kasan: fix sparse warnings: Should it be static?

Yes, when making the global variables kasan_ptr_result and
kasan_int_result as static volatile, the warnings are removed and the
variable and assignments are retained, but when just static is used I
understand that it might be optimized.

Add a fix making the global varaibles - static volatile, removing the
warnings:
mm/kasan/kasan_test.c:36:6: warning: symbol 'kasan_ptr_result' was not declared. Should it be static?
mm/kasan/kasan_test.c:37:5: warning: symbol 'kasan_int_result' was not declared. Should it be static?
