[PATCH 3.16 296/346] fix minor infoleak in get_user_ex()

[Ben Hutchings]

3.16.39-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Al Viro <viro@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 1c109fabbd51863475cd12ac206bdd249aee35af upstream.

get_user_ex(x, ptr) should zero x on failure.  It's not a lot of a leak
(at most we are leaking uninitialized 64bit value off the kernel stack,
and in a fairly constrained situation, at that), but the fix is trivial,
so...
