[PATCH 1/4] perf lock contention: Fix memory sanitizer issue

From: Namhyung Kim
Date: Fri Oct 28 2022 - 14:01:50 EST


The msan reported a use-of-uninitialized-value warning for the struct
lock_contention_data in lock_contention_read(). While it'd be filled
by bpf_map_lookup_elem(), let's just initialize it to silence the
warning.
