Clang warns (or errors with CONFIG_WERROR=y):

  arch/x86/kernel/callthunks.c:315:3: error: variable 'pad' is uninitialized when used here [-Werror,-Wuninitialized]
    315 |         *pad = dest - tmpl_size;
        |          ^~~
  arch/x86/kernel/callthunks.c:309:9: note: initialize the variable 'pad' to silence this warning
    309 |         u8 *pad;
        |                ^
        |                 = NULL
  1 error generated.

which came from our continuous integration:
