Subject: [PATCH] lkdtm/bugs: Don't expect thread termination without CONFIG_UBSAN_TRAP

When you don't select CONFIG_UBSAN_TRAP, you get:

  # echo ARRAY_BOUNDS > /sys/kernel/debug/provoke-crash/DIRECT
[  102.265827] ================================================================================
[  102.278433] UBSAN: array-index-out-of-bounds in drivers/misc/lkdtm/bugs.c:342:16
[  102.287207] index 8 is out of range for type 'char [8]'
[  102.298722] ================================================================================
[  102.313712] lkdtm: FAIL: survived array bounds overflow!
[  102.318770] lkdtm: Unexpected! This kernel (5.16.0-rc1-s3k-dev-01884-g720dcf79314a ppc) was built with CONFIG_UBSAN_BOUNDS=y

It is not correct because when CONFIG_UBSAN_TRAP is not selected
you can't expect array bounds overflow to kill the thread.

Modify the logic so that when the kernel is built with
CONFIG_UBSAN_BOUNDS but without CONFIG_UBSAN_TRAP, you get a warning
about CONFIG_UBSAN_TRAP not been selected instead.
