I agree, it doesn't look like a zswap bug: zswap is just following orders.

Shmem can keep uninitialized data pages around, but should be zeroing
what's still uninitialized before it can reach the outside world -
in this case being written to swap.  I don't know of a shmem bug here.

I've not been faced with a KMSAN report before, so I might well be
misunderstanding its language: but this looks like an ext4 "bug" to me.

I think the story that the three KMSAN stacks are telling is this:
syzbot has an ext4 filesystem on a loop device on a tmpfs file (I do
exactly that too); ext4 is doing some ext4_xattr_inode_write() business,
in the course of which it writes back a not-fully-initialized block to
the loop device; shmem faithfully copies that data into its pagecache,
then later when under memory pressure that page gets "written" out to
zswap: where zswap_is_page_same_filled() takes an interest in the data,
and KMSAN objects because some of it was not originally initialized.

If that's a correct interpretation, then it's probably not a big deal:
it's probably the uninitialized end of a buffer that's written out,
not any part of the "disk" which ext4 would ever show to a user; but
I do agree with KMSAN that ext4 would do better to clear that area,
rather than accidentally storing someone else's super-secret info.
