It was more subtle than that.  Doing an update build provoked a number
of undefined reference errors from "subr_kmem.o" while building the
BEAGLEBONE kernel.  Removing the ${OBJDIR}/.../compile/* directories
allowed a subsequent build attempt to succeed.

So, no change other than the disabling of DIAGNOSIC, DEBUG and PAX_*_DEBUG
options.  The resulting kernel fails, so apparently a critical piece of
code is on the wrong side of a #ifdef {DEBUG,DIAGNOSTIC,PAX_*_DEBUG}/#endif
block.
