The one tab indent here looks weird, normally tis would be two tabs
or aligned aftetthe opening brace.

Woudn't this be a pretty good use case of "if (IS_ENABLED(...)))"?

Also I'd expect the inverse polarity of the config option, that is
a USAFE_FOLLOW_PFN option to enable to unsafe behavior.

Any reason this doesn't use the warn and disable logic?
