Thanks.

AFAIK, CONFIG_PROVE_RAW_LOCK_NESTING is useful for teasing out cases
where RT's raw spinlocks will nest wrong with RT's sleeping spinlocks.
But nobody who wants an RT kernel will be using KFENCE. So this seems
like a non-issue? Maybe just add a `depends on !KFENCE` to
PROVE_RAW_LOCK_NESTING?
