Here's a slightly more radical patch, it unconditionally allows UBSAN.

I've not actually boot tested this.. yet.

The UBSAN instrumentation only inserts external CALLs when things go
'BAD', much like WARN(). So treat them similar to WARN()s for noinstr,
that is: allow them, at the risk of taking the machine down, to get
their message out.
