Thanks.

file_ra_state_init() says "Assumes that the caller has memset *ra to
zero". This should fix:


From: Andrew Morton <akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: fs/cramfs/inode.c: initialize file_ra_state
Date: Sun Feb 26 12:31:11 PM PST 2023

file_ra_state_init() assumes that the file_ra_state has been zeroed out.
Fixes a KMSAN used-unintialized issue (at least).

Fixes: cf948cbc35e80 ("cramfs: read_mapping_page() is synchronous")
