Starting with Rust 1.85.0 (to be released 2025-02-20), `rustc` warns [1] about disabling neon in the aarch64 hardfloat target:

While trying it out, I found that the kernel sanitizers were not enabled for that built-in target [2]. Upstream Rust agreed to backport the enablement for the current beta so that it is ready for the 1.85.0 release [3] -- thanks!
However, that still means that before Rust 1.85.0, we cannot switch since sanitizers could be in use. Thus conditionally do so.

This is consistent with what has been discussed for a while on the Rust side.
