[PATCH 04/14] Bluetooth: HCI - Fix info leak via getsockname()

From: Mathias Krause
Date: Wed Aug 15 2012 - 17:35:39 EST


The HCI code fails to initialize the hci_channel member of struct
sockaddr_hci and that for leaks two bytes kernel stack via the
getsockname() syscall. Initialize hci_channel with 0 to avoid the
info leak.
