Subject: x86: kmsan: use C versions of memset16/memset32/memset64
Date: Fri, 3 Mar 2023 15:14:32 +0100

KMSAN must see as many memory accesses as possible to prevent false
positive reports.  Fall back to versions of
memset16()/memset32()/memset64() implemented in lib/string.c instead of
those written in assembly.
