Subject: kmsan: fix memcpy tests
Date: Mon, 5 Dec 2022 15:57:40 +0100
Recent Clang changes may cause it to delete calls of memcpy(), if the
source is an uninitialized volatile local. This happens because passing a
pointer to a volatile local into memcpy() discards the volatile qualifier,
giving the compiler a free hand to optimize the memcpy() call away.
Use OPTIMIZER_HIDE_VAR() to hide the uninitialized var from the too-smart
compiler.
