 * entry is expensive, and generating an implicit call to memset() may also be
 * problematic (such as in noinstr functions). Therefore, if the compiler
 * supports it (which it should if it initializes allocas), always use the
 * "uninitialized" variant of the builtin.

 * frustrate attacks from userspace attempting to learn the next offset:
 * - Maximize the timing uncertainty visible from userspace: if the
 *   offset is chosen at syscall entry, userspace has much more control
 *   over the timing between choosing offsets. "How long will we be in
 *   kernel mode?" tends to be more difficult to predict than "how long
 *   will we be in user mode?"
 * - Reduce the lifetime of the new offset sitting in memory during

 *   (e.g. current, percpu, etc) tends to be easier than arbitrary
 *   location memory exposure.
