The commit introducing vmap support already had it: https://github.com/google/kmsan/commit/3ff9d7c640d378485286e1a99d85984ae6901f23 I don't remember what exactly required the more relaxed PAGE_KERNEL mask though :)

The value assigned to prot is immediately overwritten on the next line with PAGE_KERNEL. The right hand side of the assignment has no side-effects.
