As a full union is always sent, ensure all bytes of the union are
initialized with memset to avoid msan warnings of use of uninitialized
memory.
An example warning from the daemon test:
Uninitialized bytes in __interceptor_write at offset 71 inside [0x7ffd98da6280, 72)

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
