via boot parameter ubsan_handle

This option activates instrumentation for the entire kernel.

If you don't enable this option, you have to explicitly specify

UBSAN_SANITIZE := y for the files/directories you want to check for UB.

Enabling this option will get kernel image size increased

significantly.
