--- Comment #4 from Fangrui Song <i at maskray.me> ---
The .eh_frame issue was fixed by https://reviews.llvm.org/D100251 (target:
13.0.0).

For .init_array.0, -fsanitize={address,memory,thread,...} instrumentations
create a module constructor which is placed in .init_array.0 .
For memory/thread, the module constructor just calls an init function which is
really small.
For address, the module constructor needs to register global variables (even
under -fsanitize=kernel-address), which cannot be simply ignored.

It is likely that the kernel doesn't need .init_array.0 for memory/thread, but
introducing a new option seems overkill to me.
Ignoring it with the current /DISCARD/ : { ... *(.init_array.*) } works quite
well.
