[PATCH 3.18 010/150] can: peak_usb: fix memset() usage

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Wed Jan 14 2015 - 03:38:55 EST


3.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Stephane Grosjean <s.grosjean@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit dc50ddcd4c58a5a0226038307d6ef884bec9f8c2 upstream.

This patchs fixes a misplaced call to memset() that fills the request
buffer with 0. The problem was with sending PCAN_USBPRO_REQ_FCT
requests, the content set by the caller was thus lost.

With this patch, the memory area is zeroed only when requesting info
from the device.
