Subject: [PATCH] [v2] ubsan: disable unsigned-overflow check for i386

From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@...db.de>

Building ubsan kernels even for compile-testing introduced these
warnings in my randconfig environment:

crypto/blake2b_generic.c:98:13: error: stack frame size of 9636 bytes in function 'blake2b_compress' [-Werror,-Wframe-larger-than=]
static void blake2b_compress(struct blake2b_state *S,

lib/crypto/curve25519-fiat32.c:312:22: error: stack frame size of 2180 bytes in function 'fe_mul_impl' [-Werror,-Wframe-larger-than=]
static noinline void fe_mul_impl(u32 out[10], const u32 in1[10], const u32 in2[10])
lib/crypto/curve25519-fiat32.c:444:22: error: stack frame size of 1588 bytes in function 'fe_sqr_impl' [-Werror,-Wframe-larger-than=]
static noinline void fe_sqr_impl(u32 out[10], const u32 in1[10])

Further testing showed that this is caused by
-fsanitize=unsigned-integer-overflow, but is isolated to the 32-bit
x86 architecture.

The one in blake2b immediately overflows the 8KB stack area architectures,
so better ensure this never happens by disabling the option for 32-bit
x86.

v2: only turn it off for i386 as discussed
