Dear Josh,

Commit dbae0a934f09 ("x86/cpu: Remove CONFIG_X86_SMAP and "nosmap"")
from Borislav removes the config X86_SMAP and makes smap on x86
default.

Josh, your commit 03f16cd020eb ("objtool: Add CONFIG_OBJTOOL") makes
config UBSAN_UNREACHABLE in lib/Kconfig.ubsan refer to this
non-existing config X86_SMAP.

See this hunk in lib/Kconfig.ubsan:

diff --git a/lib/Kconfig.ubsan b/lib/Kconfig.ubsan
index f3c57ed51838..c4fe15d38b60 100644

        bool "Perform checking for unreachable code"
        # objtool already handles unreachable checking and gets angry about
        # seeing UBSan instrumentation located in unreachable places.
-       depends on !STACK_VALIDATION
+       depends on !(OBJTOOL && (STACK_VALIDATION || UNWINDER_ORC || X86_SMAP))
        depends on $(cc-option,-fsanitize=unreachable)
        help
          This option enables -fsanitize=unreachable which checks for control

I think X86_SMAP can just be dropped in this line, but I leave it up
to you to change, as I am not completely certain on the needed change
and if that just breaks the config dependencies for stack validation.

By the way, this issue was identified with the script
./scripts/checkkconfigsymbols.py

Best regards,

Lukas
