Please enable support for Kernel Electric-Fence (KFENCE), a memory
safety error detector, see
https://docs.kernel.org/dev-tools/kfence.html.

Whether to actually enable it by default (do not set
CONFIG_KFENCE_SAMPLE_INTERVAL) or disable it (set
CONFIG_KFENCE_SAMPLE_INTERVAL to 0) might be up for discussion (e.g.
enable in sid, disable before stable release?).
