Yes. That should not be poisoned unless there is a compiler bug.

Aha. I take it you have KCOV enabled?

In the past I've seen erroneous KASAN reports when KASAN and KCOV were
enabled [1], so I suspect this is may be a mis-compilation.

The issues I saw [1] were also with GCC 7.x

Can you see if you see the same issue using the kernel.org crosstool GCC 8.1.0 [2]?

Thanks,
