Is it really worth it to obsess about this? Special compiler
instrumentation simply leads to a larger stack footprint in many
cases, which is why we use a larger stack to begin with (at least we
do so for Kasan, so if we don't for Ubsan, we should consider it)

Past experience also shows that this is highly dependent on the exact
compiler version, so issues like these are often moving targets.
