The structleak plugin causes the stack frame size to grow immensely:

lib/bitfield_kunit.c: In function 'test_bitfields_constants':
lib/bitfield_kunit.c:93:1: error: the frame size of 7440 bytes is larger than 2048 bytes [-Werror=frame-larger-than=]

Turn it off in this file.

I think the  $(call cc-option,-Wframe-larger-than=10240) needs to be dropped
here. This was not in my original patch and it is definitely broken on
all architectures
with 8KB stack size or less if the function needs that much. What is the amount
of actual stack usage you observe without this? If we still get a warning, then
I think this needs to be fixed in the code.
