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.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
