kasan: fix random seed generation for tag-based mode
There are two issues with assigning random percpu seeds right now:
1. We use for_each_possible_cpu() to iterate over cpus, but cpumask is
not set up yet at the moment of kasan_init(), and thus we only set
the seed for cpu #0.
2. A call to get_random_u32() always returns the same number and produces
a message in dmesg, since the random subsystem is not yet initialized.
Fix 1 by calling kasan_init_tags() after cpumask is set up.
Fix 2 by using get_cycles() instead of get_random_u32(). This gives us
lower quality random numbers, but it's good enough, as KASAN is meant to
be used as a debugging tool and not a mitigation.
