Heap and stack initialization is great, but not when we are trying
uses of uninitialized memory. When the kernel is built with KMSAN,
having kernel memory initialization enabled may introduce false
negatives.

We disable CONFIG_INIT_STACK_ALL_PATTERN and CONFIG_INIT_STACK_ALL_ZERO
under CONFIG_KMSAN, making it impossible to auto-initialize stack
variables in KMSAN builds. We also disable CONFIG_INIT_ON_ALLOC_DEFAULT_ON
and CONFIG_INIT_ON_FREE_DEFAULT_ON to prevent accidental use of heap
auto-initialization.

We however still let the users enable heap auto-initialization at
boot-time (by setting init_on_alloc=1 or init_on_free=1), in which case
a warning is printed.
