Subject: [PATCH] mm/vmscan: avoid false-positive -Wuninitialized warning,
 again

I previously worked around a false-postive gcc-16 warning in the
get_tier_idx() function, by adding a fake initializer. This happens with
the -fsanitize=bounds sanitizer when the compiler creates a specialized
variant of isolate_folios():

In function 'get_tier_idx',
    inlined from 'isolate_folios.constprop' at mm/vmscan.c:4982:9:
mm/vmscan.c:4934:9: error: 'sp.refaulted' is used uninitialized [-Werror=uninitialized]
 4934 |         read_ctrl_pos(lruvec, type, LRU_TIER_MIN, LRU_TIER_MIN, 2, &sp);
      |         ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
mm/vmscan.c: In function 'isolate_folios.constprop':
mm/vmscan.c:4946:25: note: 'sp.refaulted' was declared here
 4946 |         struct ctrl_pos sp, pv = {};
      |                         ^~

Adding another "= {}" would solve the problem as well, but to prevent
this from happening again after the next code refactoring, try instead to
prevent this by forbidding interprocedural optimizations on this function.
