[PATCH 3.11 38/66] wanxl: fix info leak in ioctl

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

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

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

From: Salva Peirà <speiro@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 2b13d06c9584b4eb773f1e80bbaedab9a1c344e1 ]

The wanxl_ioctl() 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.
