The kernel test robot had found sparse warnings: Should it be static,
for the variables kasan_ptr_result and kasan_int_result. These were
declared globally and three functions in kasan_test_c.c use them currently.
Add them to be declared within these functions and remove the global
versions of these.

Doesn't this change break what's described in this comment?
Since we are assigning to a local var, I assume the compiler can
remove these assignments.
