Smatch complains that there are some paths where we use uninitialized data in em_sysenter(). arch/x86/kvm/emulate.c:2410 em_sysenter() error: potentially using uninitialized 'msr_data'. A couple examples of paths which don't set "pdata" are found in get_msr_hyperv() and kvm_x2apic_msr_read(). I looked at this code and it seems like setting it to zero is a common default behaviour.
