How are the automatic misaligned variables different from say heap

No difference you are right Jakub. Shadow memory initialization for heap
values and globals of course also should be changed but it is a task for
libsanitizer not ASan for which I am sending patch. Fix for libsanitizer
to support unaligned heaps and globals will be committed by a separate
patch.
AFAIK folks only wanted this feature in kernel ASan for now. Runtime
support for heap and globals will be done inside kernel.
