KMSAN inserts API function calls in a lot of places (function entries and exits, local variables, memory accesses), so they may get called from the uaccess regions as well. KMSAN API functions are used to update the metadata (shadow/origin pages) for kernel memory accesses. The metadata pages for kernel pointers are also located in the kernel memory, so touching them is not a problem. For userspace pointers, no metadata is allocated. If an API function is supposed to read or modify the metadata, it does so for kernel pointers and ignores userspace pointers. If an API function is supposed to return a pair of metadata pointers for the instrumentation to use (like all __msan_metadata_ptr_for_TYPE_SIZE() functions do), it returns the allocated metadata for kernel pointers and special dummy buffers residing in the kernel memory for userspace pointers. As a result, none of KMSAN API functions perform userspace accesses, but since they might be called from UACCESS regions they use user_access_save/restore().
