Hrm, these are coming out of CONFIG_UBSAN_MISC, yes? It seems that the
UBSAN checks that are non-recoverable all inject unreachable checks
afterwards, from what I can see.

Isn't this another version of the earlier unreachable-ud2 issue?

Regardless, the type_mismatch it triggered for misalignment and
object-size checks, and the alignment check is likely going to always
misfire on x86. The randconfig includes that config:

CONFIG_UBSAN_ALIGNMENT=y

So perhaps the config should be strengthened to disallow it under
COMPILE_TEST?

config UBSAN_ALIGNMENT
        def_bool !UBSAN_NO_ALIGNMENT
	depends on !COMPILE_TEST
