The p9_tag_alloc() does not initialize the transport error t_err field.
The struct p9_req_t *req is allocated and stored in a struct p9_client
variable. The field t_err is never initialized before p9_conn_cancel()
checks its value.
KUMSAN(KernelUninitializedMemorySantizer, a new error detection tool)
reports this bug.
