structleak: disable STRUCTLEAK_BYREF in combination with KASAN_STACK
The combination of KASAN_STACK and GCC_PLUGIN_STRUCTLEAK_BYREF leads to much larger kernel stack usage, as seen from the warnings about functions that now exceed the 2048 byte limit: drivers/media/i2c/tvp5150.c:253:1: error: the frame size of 3936 bytes is larger than 2048 bytes drivers/media/tuners/r820t.c:1327:1: error: the frame size of 2816 bytes is larger than 2048 bytes drivers/net/wireless/broadcom/brcm80211/brcmsmac/phy/phy_n.c:16552:1: error: the frame size of 3144 bytes is larger than 2048 bytes [-Werror=frame-larger-than=] fs/ocfs2/aops.c:1892:1: error: the frame size of 2088 bytes is larger than 2048 bytes fs/ocfs2/dlm/dlmrecovery.c:737:1: error: the frame size of 2088 bytes is larger than 2048 bytes fs/ocfs2/namei.c:1677:1: error: the frame size of 2584 bytes is larger than 2048 bytes fs/ocfs2/super.c:1186:1: error: the frame size of 2640 bytes is larger than 2048 bytes fs/ocfs2/xattr.c:3678:1: error: the frame size of 2176 bytes is larger than 2048 bytes net/bluetooth/l2cap_core.c:7056:1: error: the frame size of 2144 bytes is larger than 2048 bytes [-Werror=frame-larger-than=] net/bluetooth/l2cap_core.c: In function 'l2cap_recv_frame': net/bridge/br_netlink.c:1505:1: error: the frame size of 2448 bytes is larger than 2048 bytes net/ieee802154/nl802154.c:548:1: error: the frame size of 2232 bytes is larger than 2048 bytes net/wireless/nl80211.c:1726:1: error: the frame size of 2224 bytes is larger than 2048 bytes net/wireless/nl80211.c:2357:1: error: the frame size of 4584 bytes is larger than 2048 bytes net/wireless/nl80211.c:5108:1: error: the frame size of 2760 bytes is larger than 2048 bytes net/wireless/nl80211.c:6472:1: error: the frame size of 2112 bytes is larger than 2048 bytes The structleak plugin was previously disabled for CONFIG_COMPILE_TEST, but meant we missed some bugs, so this time we should address them. The frame size warnings are distracting, and risking a kernel stack overflow is generally not beneficial to performance, so it may be best to disallow that particular combination. This can be done by turning off either one. I picked the dependency in GCC_PLUGIN_STRUCTLEAK_BYREF and GCC_PLUGIN_STRUCTLEAK_BYREF_ALL, as this option is designed to make uninitialized stack usage less harmful when enabled on its own, but it also prevents KASAN from detecting those cases in which it was in fact needed. KASAN_STACK is currently implied by KASAN on gcc, but could be made a user selectable option if we want to allow combining (non-stack) KASAN with GCC_PLUGIN_STRUCTLEAK_BYREF. Note that it would be possible to specifically address the files that print the warning, but presumably the overall stack usage is still significantly higher than in other configurations, so this would not address the full problem. I could not test this with CONFIG_INIT_STACK_ALL, which may or may not suffer from a similar problem.
