[PATCH v2] x86/Kconfig: Fix allyesconfig

From: Guenter Roeck
Date: Wed Apr 16 2025 - 19:06:11 EST


64-bit allyesconfig builds fail with

x86_64-linux-ld: kernel image bigger than KERNEL_IMAGE_SIZE

Bisect points to commit 6f110a5e4f99 ("Disable SLUB_TINY for build
testing") as the responsible commit. Reverting that patch does indeed
fix the problem. Further analysis shows that disabling SLUB_TINY enables
KASAN, and that KASAN is responsible for the image size increase.

Solve the build problem by disabling KASAN for test builds.
