Subject: kmsan: do not wipe out origin when doing partial unpoisoning
Date: Tue, 28 May 2024 12:48:06 +0200
As noticed by Brian, KMSAN should not be zeroing the origin when
unpoisoning parts of a four-byte uninitialized value, e.g.:
char a[4];
kmsan_unpoison_memory(a, 1);
This led to false negatives, as certain poisoned values could receive zero
origins, preventing those values from being reported.
To fix the problem, check that kmsan_internal_set_shadow_origin() writes
zero origins only to slots which have zero shadow.
