[PATCH 4.14 47/62] x86/boot: Save fields explicitly, zero out everything else

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue Aug 27 2019 - 04:16:38 EST


From: John Hubbard <jhubbard@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit a90118c445cc7f07781de26a9684d4ec58bfcfd1 upstream.

Recent gcc compilers (gcc 9.1) generate warnings about an out of bounds
memset, if the memset goes accross several fields of a struct. This
generated a couple of warnings on x86_64 builds in sanitize_boot_params().

Fix this by explicitly saving the fields in struct boot_params
that are intended to be preserved, and zeroing all the rest.

[ tglx: Tagged for stable as it breaks the warning free build there as well ]
