When booting an allmodconfig kernel, there are a lot of false-positives. With a message like this 'UBSAN: Undefined behaviour in...' with a call trace that follows. UBSAN warnings are a result of enabling noisy CONFIG_UBSAN_ALIGNMENT which is disabled by default if HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS=y. It's noisy even if don't have efficient unaligned access, e.g. people often add __cacheline_aligned_in_smp in structs, but forget to align allocations of such struct (kmalloc() give 8-byte alignment in worst case). Rework so that when building a allmodconfig kernel that turns everything into '=m' or '=y' will turn off UBSAN_ALIGNMENT.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
