Subject: kmsan: prevent optimizations in memcpy tests
Date: Mon, 11 Sep 2023 16:57:00 +0200
Clang 18 learned to optimize away memcpy() calls of small uninitialized
scalar values. To ensure that memcpy tests in kmsan_test.c still perform
calls to memcpy() (which KMSAN replaces with __msan_memcpy()), declare a
separate memcpy_noinline() function with volatile parameters, which won't
be optimized.
Also retire DO_NOT_OPTIMIZE(), as memcpy_noinline() is apparently enough.
