This indeed fixed the ASAN report. However, I don't see how the
character in the first column can be zero. That should not happen.
The ASAN reporte started with patch 8.1.0562, which changes the parsing
of 'diffmode'. I don't see how that can trigger this problem. It might
have been caused by a library change.
I have not been able to reproduce the problem locally. If someone can,
please figure out what the root cause is. E.g. would be useful to know
what is being redrawn and what is in the other lines. I suspect it's
redrawing the whole display, so perhaps it's the last line?
