I had such patches in the past.

It breaks everything to the left and right.

What I need is someone who turns this on PER DRIVER (in their tree)
fixes all the fallout (I don't know how, maybe using 0day builds?), then
sends a patch fixing the fallout and as the last patch turns on
COMPILE_TEST when it doesn't break anything.

And we want to use it for new drivers, ideally.

The arch that always breaks everything us UM Linux.

Yours,
