https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cailca/linux-mm/master/x86.config

BTW, this will also trigger a compilation breakage,

ld: arch/x86/platform/efi/efi_64.o: in function `efi_set_virtual_address_map':
efi_64.c:(.init.text+0x1419): undefined reference to `__efi64_thunk'
ld: efi_64.c:(.init.text+0x1530): undefined reference to `efi_uv1_memmap_phys_prolog'
ld: efi_64.c:(.init.text+0x1706): undefined reference to `efi_uv1_memmap_phys_epilog’

Likely due to the commit “efi/x86: avoid KASAN false positives when accessing the 1:1 mapping”

Looks like you are in process fixing that one as well.
