Subject: [PATCH 4/5] bug: Provide toggle for BUG on data corruption

The kernel checks for several cases of data structure corruption under
either normal runtime, or under various CONFIG_DEBUG_* settings. When
corruption is detected, some systems may want to BUG() immediately instead
of letting the corruption continue. Many of these manipulation primitives
can be used by security flaws to gain arbitrary memory write control. This
provides CONFIG_BUG_ON_CORRUPTION to control newly added BUG() locations.

This is inspired by similar hardening in PaX and Grsecurity, and by
Stephen Boyd in MSM kernels.
