kmsan: fix out-of-bounds access to shadow memory

Running sha224_kunit on a KMSAN-enabled kernel results in a crash in kmsan_internal_set_shadow_origin():

BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffbc3840291000 #PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode #PF: error_code(0x0000) - not-present page PGD 1810067 P4D 1810067 PUD 192d067 PMD 3c17067 PTE 0 Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP NOPTI CPU: 0 UID: 0 PID: 81 Comm: kunit_try_catch Tainted: G N 6.17.0-rc3 #10 PREEMPT(voluntary) Tainted: [N]=TEST Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS rel-1.17.0-0-gb52ca86e094d-prebuilt.qemu.org 04/01/2014 RIP: 0010:kmsan_internal_set_shadow_origin+0x91/0x100 [...] Call Trace: <TASK> __msan_memset+0xee/0x1a0 sha224_final+0x9e/0x350 test_hash_buffer_overruns+0x46f/0x5f0 ? kmsan_get_shadow_origin_ptr+0x46/0xa0 ? __pfx_test_hash_buffer_overruns+0x10/0x10 kunit_try_run_case+0x198/0xa00

This occurs when memset() is called on a buffer that is not 4-byte aligned and extends to the end of a guard page, i.e. the next page is unmapped.

The bug is that the loop at the end of kmsan_internal_set_shadow_origin() accesses the wrong shadow memory bytes when the address is not 4-byte aligned. Since each 4 bytes are associated with an origin, it rounds the address and size so that it can access all the origins that contain the buffer. H…
