That way we're unlikely to have any surprises in future with instrumentation etc. I strongly suspect you need to disable more things here, e.g. UBSAN, KASAN, KCOV. Have you tried compiling a kernel with those features enabled? VDSO files probably also need to be marked as OBJECT_FILES_NON_STANDARD. Thanks, Mark.
