With HW_TAGS KASAN and kasan.stacktrace=off, the cache created in the
kmem_cache_double_destroy() test might get merged with an existing one.
Thus, the first kmem_cache_destroy() call won't actually destroy it but
will only decrease the refcount.  This causes the test to fail.

Provide an empty constructor for the created cache to prevent the cache
from getting merged.

README
Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
