. Plain memset() in arch/x86/include/asm/string_64.h is redirected to __msan_memset()
but memsetXX() are not redirected to __msan_memsetXX(). That is, memory initialization
via memsetXX() results in KMSAN's shadow memory being not updated.

KMSAN folks, how should we fix this problem?
Redirect assembly-implemented memset16(size) to memset(size*2) if KMSAN is enabled?
I think the easiest way to fix it would be disable memsetXX asm
implementations by something like:

So ... what should I do here? Can someone please send me a revert or patch
to apply. I don't think I should do this, since I already tossed my credit
for not looking at stuff carefully enough into the wind :-)

This way we'll just pick the existing C implementations instead of
reinventing them.
I'd like to avoid touching per-arch asm/string.h files if possible.

Can't we do like below (i.e. keep asm implementations as-is, but
automatically redirect to __msan_memset()) ? If yes, we could move all
__msan_*() redirection from per-arch asm/string.h files to the common
linux/string.h file?
Oh I was more asking about the fbdev patch. This here sounds a lot more
something that needs to be discussed with kmsan people, that's definitely
not my area.
