[PATCH] ubsan-run-time-undefined-behavior-sanity-checker-fix-5

From: Andrey Ryabinin
Date: Thu Dec 31 2015 - 10:20:37 EST


Don't use 'bounds-strict' checker. It's a new checker that showed up
in GCC 6. It appeared to cause a lot of false positives in dynamically
allocated structs which has array as the last field, e.g:
[ 72.707515] UBSAN: Undefined behaviour in kernel/pid.c:506:23
[ 72.707517] index 2 is out of range for type 'upid [1]'

Anyway, we have KASAN for these kind of bugs, so we won't loose much by
disabling bounds-strict.
