This enables the __ASSERT() macro in the kernel code. If an assertion fails, the policy for what to do is controlled by the implementation of the assert_post_action() function, which by default will trigger a fatal error.

Disabling this option will cause assertions to compile to nothing, improving performance and system footprint.
