Subject: null_blk: Zero-initialize read buffers in non-memory-backed mode
X-Git-Tag: v5.10.7~2496^2~37
X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=cecbc9ce80e71a2894c7dfae6254b39cd4b8ba60;p=platform%2Fkernel%2Flinux-rpi.git

null_blk: Zero-initialize read buffers in non-memory-backed mode

This patch suppresses an uninteresting KMSAN complaint without affecting
performance of the null_blk driver if CONFIG_KMSAN is disabled.
