PATCH 1/1 ubsan: Tighten UBSAN_BOUNDS on GCC
The use of -fsanitize=bounds on GCC will ignore some trailing arrays, leaving a gap in coverage. Switch to using -fsanitize=bounds-strict to match Clang's stricter behavior.

The first sentence does not read right to me, you have array-bounds twice. I think the first one wants to be just bounds?

Oops, yes. I rewrote that a few times and seem to have gotten lost. I think it is better written as:
Under Clang, the -fsanitize=bounds option is actually composed of two more specific options, -fsanitize=array-bounds and -fsanitize=local-bounds. However, -fsanitize=local-bounds can only be used when trap mode is enabled. (See also the help for CONFIG_LOCAL_BOUNDS.) Explicitly check for -fsanitize=array-bounds so that we can build up the options needed for UBSAN_BOUNDS with or without UBSAN_TRAP.
