Subject: [PATCH] sched.h: drop in_ubsan field when UBSAN is in trap mode

in_ubsan field of task_struct is only used in lib/ubsan.c, which in its
turn is used only `ifneq ($(CONFIG_UBSAN_TRAP),y)`.

Removing unnecessary field from a task_struct will help preserve the
ABI between vanilla and CONFIG_UBSAN_TRAP'ed kernels. In particular,
this will help enabling bounds sanitizer transparently for Android's
GKI.
