kmsan: fix memcpy tests

Browse source

Recent Clang changes may cause it to delete calls of memcpy(), if the
source is an uninitialized volatile local.  This happens because passing a
pointer to a volatile local into memcpy() discards the volatile qualifier,
giving the compiler a free hand to optimize the memcpy() call away.

Use OPTIMIZER_HIDE_VAR() to hide the uninitialized var from the too-smart
compiler.
