I got a report of a msan failure like below:

  $ sudo perf lock con -ab -- sleep 1
  ...
  ==224416==WARNING: MemorySanitizer: use-of-uninitialized-value

      #8 0x565115e865a9 in _start

It was because the 'key' variable is not initialized.  Actually it'd be set
by bpf_map_get_next_key() but msan didn't seem to understand it.  Let's make
msan happy by initializing the variable.
