During early boot, while KASAN is not yet initialized, it is possible to enter reporting code-path and end up in kasan_report(). While uninitialized, the branch there prevents generating any reports, however, under certain circumstances when branches are being traced (TRACE_BRANCH_PROFILING), we may recurse deep enough to cause kernel reboots without warning. To prevent similar issues in future, we should disable branch tracing for the core runtime.
