KMSAN sysbot detected a read access to an untinitialized value in the
headroom of an outgoing CAN related sk_buff. When using CAN sockets this
area is filled appropriately - but when using a packet socket this
initialization is missing.
The problematic read access occurs in the CAN receive path which can
only be triggered when the sk_buff is sent through a (virtual) CAN
interface. So we check in the sending path whether we need to perform
the missing initializations.
Fixes: d3b58c47d3 ("can: replace timestamp as unique skb attribute")

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
