+ 3. Hardware Tag-Based KASAN (arm64 only, based on hardware memory
+ tagging, enabled with CONFIG_KASAN_HW_TAGS).

+ Disables stack instrumentation and thus KASAN's ability to detect
+ out-of-bounds bugs in stack variables.
+
+ With Clang, stack instrumentation has a problem that causes excessive
+ stack usage, see https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=38809. Thus,
+ with Clang, this option is deemed unsafe.
+
+ This option is always disabled when compile-testing with Clang to
+ avoid cluttering the log with stack overflow warnings.
+
+ With GCC, enabling stack instrumentation is assumed to be safe.
+
+ If the architecture disables inline instrumentation via
+ ARCH_DISABLE_KASAN_INLINE, stack instrumentation gets disabled
+ as well, as it adds inline-style instrumentation that is run
+ unconditionally.
