In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

mm/mempolicy: fix uninit-value in mpol_rebind_policy()

mpol_set_nodemask()(mm/mempolicy.c) does not set up nodemask when
pol->mode is MPOL_LOCAL. Check pol->mode before access
pol->w.cpuset_mems_allowed in mpol_rebind_policy()(mm/mempolicy.c).

KMSAN: uninit-value in mpol_rebind_task (2)

This patch seems to fix below bug too.
KMSAN: uninit-value in mpol_rebind_mm (2)
https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?id=f2fecd0d7013f54ec4162f60743a2b28df40926b

The uninit-value is pol->w.cpuset_mems_allowed in mpol_rebind_policy().
When syzkaller reproducer runs to the beginning of mpol_new(),

    mpol_new() mm/mempolicy.c
  do_mbind() mm/mempolicy.c
kernel_mbind() mm/mempolicy.c

mode is 1(MPOL_PREFERRED), nodes_empty(*nodes) is true and flags
is 0. Then

mode = MPOL_LOCAL;
...
policy->mode = mode;
policy->flags = flags;

will be executed. So in mpol_set_nodemask(),

    mpol_set_nodemask() mm/mempolicy.c
  do_mbind()
kernel_mbind()

pol->mode is 4 (MPOL_LOCAL), that nodemask in pol is not initialized,
which will be accessed in mpol_rebind_policy().
