I will correct this.

Ah, thought to send a patch series.

Sorry, I should explain it clearly. If I did right, watching "status"
with gdb while running syzkaller reproducer, "status" returns from
usb_control_msg() is -71. In which case, *pdata won't be touched in
r8712_usbctrl_vendorreq(). As a result, "data" in
usb_read8()/usb_read16()/usb_read32() will be returned without
initialization. I think that is why kmsan reports:
Local variable data created at:
 usb_read8+0x5d/0x130 drivers/staging/rtl8712/usb_ops.c:33
 r8712_read8+0xa5/0xd0 drivers/staging/rtl8712/rtl8712_io.c:29

I tried something similar which also works fine, but I think this patch
does't fix it at root.
