Subject: kunit: kasan_test: disable fortify string checker on kasan_strings() test
Date: Fri, 1 Aug 2025 13:02:36 +0100
Similar to commit 09c6304e38e4 ("kasan: test: fix compatibility with
FORTIFY_SOURCE") the kernel is panicing in kasan_string().
This is due to the `src` and `ptr` not being hidden from the optimizer
which would disable the runtime fortify string checker.
Call trace:
