Hi,
I reported the following bug in the Debian BTS
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1078428
but I can also reproduce it in Termux (Android) with bash 5.3
and readline 8.3.
A \C-u setting in the .inputrc file such as
"\C-u": kill-whole-line
is ignored if ^U is the kill character (usual tty settings).
This is controlled by the readline variable `bind-tty-special-chars',
which is enabled by default. It's been that way since bash-3.1, which
was released in 2005.
