The simplification of mte_get_random_tag() caused the introduction of the
warning below:
In file included from arch/arm64/include/asm/kasan.h:9,
from include/linux/kasan.h:16,
from mm/kasan/common.c:14:
mm/kasan/common.c: In function ‘mte_get_random_tag’:
arch/arm64/include/asm/mte-kasan.h:45:9: warning: ‘addr’ is used
uninitialized [-Wuninitialized]
45 | asm(__MTE_PREAMBLE "irg %0, %0"
|
Fix the warning initializing the address to NULL.
Note: mte_get_random_tag() returns a tag and it never dereferences the address,
hence 'addr' can be safely initialized to NULL.
Fixes: c8f8de4c0887 ("arm64: kasan: simplify and inline MTE functions")

Might it be better to simply change the asm constraint to "=r" ?

Indeed, did not notice the "+r". I will change it accordingly and post v2.
