Nathan Chancellor f50c912724 ACPI: APEI: GHES: Disable KASAN instrumentation when compile testing with clang < 18 
[ Upstream commit b584bfbd7e ]

After a recent innocuous change to drivers/acpi/apei/ghes.c, building
ARCH=arm64 allmodconfig with clang-17 or older (which has both
CONFIG_KASAN=y and CONFIG_WERROR=y) fails with:

  drivers/acpi/apei/ghes.c:902:13: error: stack frame size (2768) exceeds limit (2048) in 'ghes_do_proc' [-Werror,-Wframe-larger-than]
    902 | static void ghes_do_proc(struct ghes *ghes,
        |             ^

A KASAN pass that removes unneeded stack instrumentation, enabled by
default in clang-18 [1], drastically improves stack usage in this case.

To avoid the warning in the common allmodconfig case when it can break
the build, disable KASAN for ghes.o when compile testing with clang-17
and older. Disabling KASAN outright may hide legitimate runtime issues,
so live with the warning in that case; the user can either increase the
frame warning limit or disable -Werror, which they should probably do
when debugging with KASAN anyways.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
