Can't you just use __attribute__((no_sanitize_address)) on the functions
that have such a code? Or you could use special macros for those accesses
(which could e.g. call function to read memory or write memory, implemented
in assembly or in __attribute__((no_sanitize_address)) function), or
temporarily unpoison and poison again.
