Almost every patch is talking about this magical config symbol but it
is nowhere to be found. How do I disable it, is there a Kconfig entry
somewhere, etc, etc?

Also, eww.

It seems all these newfangled things we get, mean obfuscating code even
more. What's wrong with using __nocfi instead? That's nicely out of the
way so slap that in front of functions.

Also, did you even build this on, say, 32-bit allmodconfig?

Oh well.
