Some architectures use a hardware defined structure at address zero.
Checking for a null pointer will result in many ubsan reports.
Allow users to disable the null sanitizer.

Several build configurations had already disabled this warning because
it generates a lot of false positives. But some had not, and it was
still enabled for "allmodconfig" builds, for example.
Looking at the warnings produced, every single one I looked at was a
false positive, and the warnings are frequent enough (and big enough)
that they can easily hide real problems that you don't notice in the
noise generated by -Wmaybe-uninitialized.
The warning is good in theory, but this is a classic case of a warning
that causes more problems than the warning can solve.
If gcc gets better at avoiding false positives, we may be able to
re-enable this warning. But as is, we're better off without it, and I
want to be able to see the *real* warnings.

-fsanitize=* options makes GCC less smart than usual and increase number
of 'maybe-uninitialized' false-positives. So this patch does two things:
* Add -Wno-maybe-uninitialized to CFLAGS_UBSAN which will disable all
such warnings for instrumented files.
* Remove CONFIG_UBSAN_SANITIZE_ALL from all[yes|mod]config builds. So
the all[yes|mod]config build goes without -fsanitize=* and still with
-Wmaybe-uninitialized.

UBSAN uses compile-time instrumentation to catch undefined behavior
(UB). Compiler inserts code that perform certain kinds of checks before
operations that could cause UB. If check fails (i.e. UB detected)
__ubsan_handle_* function called to print error message.
So the most of the work is done by compiler. This patch just implements
ubsan handlers printing errors.
GCC has this capability since 4.9.x [1] (see -fsanitize=undefined
option and its suboptions).
However GCC 5.x has more checkers implemented [2].
Article [3] has a bit more details about UBSAN in the GCC.

Issues which UBSAN has found thus far are:
Found bugs:
* out-of-bounds access - 97840cb67ff5 ("netfilter: nfnetlink: fix
insufficient validation in nfnetlink_bind")
undefined shifts:
* d48458d4a768 ("jbd2: use a better hash function for the revoke
table")
* 10632008b9e1 ("clockevents: Prevent shift out of bounds")
* 'x << -1' shift in ext4 -

http://lkml.kernel.org/r/<CACT4Y+ZxoR3UjLgcNdUm4fECLMx2VdtfrENMtRRCdgHB2n0bJA@mail.gmail.com>
WONTFIX here because it should be fixed in bpf program, not in kernel.
