[bug#61120] [PATCH core-updates 0/1] gnu: mesa: Fix sporadic test failures.

[Simon South]

On core-updates, I've found Mesa will sometimes fail its test suite with error
messages like

  
../mesa-22.2.4/src/gallium/drivers/r600/sfn/tests/sfn_instrfromstring_test.cpp:712:
 Failure
  Expected equality of these values:
    os.str()
      Which is: "WRITE_SCRATCH 20 R1.xyzw\xFF\xFF AL:4 ALO:16"
    init
      Which is: "WRITE_SCRATCH 20 R1.xyzw AL:4 ALO:16"

Turns out this is due to an uninitialized buffer in the test suite's code,
reported to upstream with issue 7021[0] and fixed with upstream commit
7749599d[1] in Mesa 22.3.0.

The patch to follow backports this commit to the version in core-updates,
22.2.4, and has eliminated these sporadic failures for me.

Tested on x86-64 and AArch64 and everything seems fine.
