In the dashboard [1] shows
BUG: KMSAN: uninit-value in dev_get_drvdata include/linux/device.h:1388
[inline]
BUG: KMSAN: uninit-value in hid_get_drvdata include/linux/hid.h:628 [inline]
BUG: KMSAN: uninit-value in lg4ff_set_autocenter_default+0x23a/0xa20
drivers/hid/hid-lg4ff.c:477
base on that I did the initialization the pointer in the patch.
