This is an optimization to reduce stackdepot pressure.

struct mmu_gather contains 7 1-bit fields packed into a 32-bit unsigned
int value. The remaining 25 bits remain uninitialized and are never used,
but KMSAN updates the origin for them in zap_pXX_range() in mm/memory.c,
thus creating very long origin chains. This is technically correct, but
consumes too much memory.

Unpoisoning the whole structure will prevent creating such chains.
