Turn off forced debug builds
For many years, rawhide kernels have forced users to run debug builds on
git snapshots by not building a non debug kernel as an option. While
this has served us well, in finding occasional bugs that are less likely
to surface otherwise, the performance of debug kernels has gotten
considerably worse over time. After evaluating the debug configs to see
if performance could be improved, it has become clear that we would have
to trade off too much to regain performance. We would be better served
by leaving more debug options enabled and offering a non debug kernel
for all users on all builds.
