Although nobody seems to be interested in sparc at LLVM side, GCC users still want to use sanitizers on sparc targets. We used to apply several local patches to GCC (see https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=63958 and https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=78532) to fix build issues, however we need to adjust/reapply them after each merge...
Can we commit them upstream?

I'm interested in sparc, but not so much sparc/linux. Anyways, seems sane enough to me, especially if it's already seen use in gcc. (Although i'd wait for one of the sanitizer maintainers to chime in)
Are you the original author of these changes in the gcc repo? (If not, can you make sure the original authors are credited and okay with submitting this?)

No, David S Miller is an author of this patch. I'll ask him about this (I don't expect any problems here). I'm also CC'ing Jakub, GCC maintainer.

LGTM, assuming testing passes.
Please submit once you have ok from the original patch author.

Ok with David:
"I have no objections to anything which resolves this multi-year painful situation."
