This bug is awaiting verification that the linux-
oracle-5.15/5.15.0-1006.8~20.04.1 kernel in -proposed solves the
problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the results. If
the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed-focal' to
'verification-done-focal'. If the problem still exists, change the tag
'verification-needed-focal' to 'verification-failed-focal'.

If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will
be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed.

See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how
to enable and use -proposed. Thank you!

Title:
  disable CONFIG_KFENCE_STATIC_KEYS in linux 5.15

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in linux source package in Jammy:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  KFENCE devs are changing CONFIG_KFENCE_STATIC_KEYS to be disabled by
  default, because it's introducing more problems than benefits:

  https://lore.kernel.org/all/20211019102524.2807208-2-el...@google.com/T/#u

  This also seems to trigger QEMU bugs during the systemd autopkgtest, like:
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/qemu/+bug/1920934

  [Test case]

  Run systemd autopkgtest.

  [Fix]

  Disable CONFIG_KFENCE_STATIC_KEYS.

  [Regression potential]

  We may experience an overall performance regression for not using
  static branches in the KFENCE code.
