riscv: Improve kasan population by using hugepages when possible
The kasan functions that populates the shadow regions used to allocate them
page by page and did not take advantage of hugepages, so fix this by
trying to allocate hugepages of 1GB and fallback to 2MB hugepages or 4K
pages in case it fails.
This reduces the page table memory consumption and improves TLB usage,
as shown below:
