Rather than saying this fixes the code that enables the config flags I
might be more comfortable with listing the commit that added the two
pointers to the struct:
Fixes: f80be4571b19 ("kmsan: add KMSAN runtime core")

It will make it easier to identify where the lines where added that
actually increased the size of the page struct.

Otherwise the code itself looks good to me.
