When building with -Wuninitialized and CONFIG_KASAN_SW_TAGS unset, Clang
warns:
mm/kasan/common.c:484:40: warning: variable 'tag' is uninitialized when
used here [-Wuninitialized]
kasan_unpoison_shadow(set_tag(object, tag), size);
^~~
set_tag ignores tag in this configuration but clang doesn't realize it
at this point in its pipeline, as it points to arch_kasan_set_tag as
being the point where it is used, which will later be expanded to
(void *)(object) without a use of tag. Just zero initialize tag, as it
removes this warning and doesn't change the meaning of the code.

Hi Nathan,
Could you change this value to 0xff? This doesn't make any difference,
since set_tag() ignores the tag anyway, but is less confusing, as all
the non-tagged kernel pointers have 0xff in the top byte.
Thanks!
