The first error is seen if RANDOMIZE_KSTACK_OFFSET_DEFAULT,
WARN_DYNAMIC_STACK, and WERROR are enabled. The other problems
are seen if KASAN_KUNIT_TEST, WARN_DYNAMIC_STACK, and WERROR
are enabled.

It does not make sense to abort a build in that situation.
If either RANDOMIZE_KSTACK_OFFSET_DEFAULT or KASAN_KUNIT_TEST
is enabled, dynamic stack allocation is on purpose and should
not fail the build. Add dependencies to reflect that situation.


Thanks for the patch. I think Heiko (on vacation) has a patch to
get rid  of this config alltogether, which is probably the better
solution.


I did consider that, but concluded that this would be something a maintainer
should do and went with what I thought was the least invasive method.
I did check the various mailing lists for other patches, but I did not
find anything there. Sorry if I missed it.
