[PATCH 3.16.y-ckt 138/170] ALSA: pcm: Zero-clear reserved fields of PCM status ioctl in compat mode

From: Luis Henriques
Date: Tue Nov 11 2014 - 06:23:41 EST


3.16.7-ckt1 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@xxxxxxx>

commit 317168d0c766defd14b3d0e9c2c4a9a258b803ee upstream.

In compat mode, we copy each field of snd_pcm_status struct but don't
touch the reserved fields, and this leaves uninitialized values
there. Meanwhile the native ioctl does zero-clear the whole
structure, so we should follow the same rule in compat mode, too.
