If you compile this example with -O2 -fno-strict-overflow, like the
linux kernel does, it will print OVERFLOW in both clang and gcc. I think
this warning is a false positive from ubsan. I am not sure if we want to
handle it like that or not.

I actually would also used the fact that -fno-strict-overflow is set
during kernel compile to make the checks easier and faster. Is this a
good thing? What do others think?

Thanks,
Hannes
