It means that the option can only be disabled for clang.

It has never been possible to control KASAN_STACK for GCC because of the
bool ... if ... syntax. This patch does not change that logic. Making it
possible to control KASAN_STACK with GCC seems fine but that is going to
be a new change that would probably be suited for a new patch on top of
this one.
