[PATCH 04/13] powerpc: Disable CONFIG_DCACHE_WORD_ACCESS when KMSAN is enabled

From: Nicholas Miehlbradt <hidden>
Date: 2023-12-14 05:57:01
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: linux for powerpc (32-bit and 64-bit), the rest · Maintainers: Madhavan Srinivasan, Michael Ellerman, Linus Torvalds

Word sized accesses may read uninitialized data when optimizing loads.
Disable this optimization when KMSAN is enabled to prevent false
positives.
