When the kernel is compiled with Clang, UBSAN_BOUNDS inserts a brk after
the handler call, preventing it from printing any information processed
inside the buffer.
For Clang -fsanitize=bounds expands to -fsanitize=array-bounds and
-fsanitize=local-bounds, and the latter adds a brk after the handler
call

You can remove the cc-option check above; Clang has supported this
option for many releases.  (One less compiler invocation at build
time, FWIW).

You cannot remove the below cc-option; GCC only implemented that
sanitizer in the 5.0+ releases; the kernel still support GCC 4.9.
