Subject: [PATCH] iommufd: Initialize batch->kind in batch_clear()
Author: kartikey406@gmail.com

#syz test: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git master

KMSAN reported an uninitialized value when batch_add_pfn_num() reads
batch->kind. This occurs because batch_clear() does not initialize
the kind field, leaving it with garbage data when a struct pfn_batch
is declared on the stack.

When batch_add_pfn_num() checks "if (batch->kind != kind)", it reads
this uninitialized value, triggering KMSAN warnings.

Initialize batch->kind to zero in batch_clear() to ensure the field
always starts in a known state.
