Can you add a comment describing what that does and why?

Why do we need to disable branch profiling now?

I'd probably be happier if all the CFLAGS changes were done in a leadup

Just to be safe "^CONFIG_KASAN=y$" ?

MEM_FUNCS ?

There's that branch profiling again, though here it's only if KASAN is enabled.
