Re: KMSAN: uninit-value in __dev_mc_add

Hello,

This report is actually for the same bug which was reported in:

https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?id=088efeac32fdde781038a777a63e436c0d4d7036

The note there that the bug was fixed by "Commits: net: fix uninit-value in
__hw_addr_add_ex()" is wrong. A C-reproducer from the 2nd syzkaller report
can trigger the bug from this one.

I've researched this and a result is a proposed patch, the problem is the tun
device code allowing to set an arbitrary link type.

A simplified reproducer is attached.
