With every release of LLVM, both of these sanitizers eat up more and
more of the stack. So, set FRAME_WARN to 0 if either of them is enabled
for a given build.

Thanks for your patch!

Are kernels with KASAN || KCSAN || KMSAN enabled supposed to be bootable?

They are all intended to be used for runtime debugging, so I'd imagine so.

Stack overflows do cause crashes.

It is worth noting that FRAME_WARN has been disabled for KMSAN for quite
a while and as far as I can tell no one has complained.
