[PATCH 3.5 50/64] farsync: fix info leak in ioctl

From: Luis Henriques
Date: Mon Oct 28 2013 - 10:54:04 EST


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

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

From: =?UTF-8?q?Salva=20Peir=C3=B3?= <speiro@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 96b340406724d87e4621284ebac5e059d67b2194 upstream.

The fst_get_iface() code fails to initialize the two padding bytes of
struct sync_serial_settings after the ->loopback member. Add an explicit
memset(0) before filling the structure to avoid the info leak.
