[PATCH 3.16 178/178] ALSA: timer: Fix missing queue indices reset at SNDRV_TIMER_IOCTL_SELECT

[Ben Hutchings]

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

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

From: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@xxxxxxx>

commit ba3021b2c79b2fa9114f92790a99deb27a65b728 upstream.

snd_timer_user_tselect() reallocates the queue buffer dynamically, but
it forgot to reset its indices.  Since the read may happen
concurrently with ioctl and snd_timer_user_tselect() allocates the
buffer via kmalloc(), this may lead to the leak of uninitialized
kernel-space data, as spotted via KMSAN:

  BUG: KMSAN: use of unitialized memory in snd_timer_user_read+0x6c4/0xa10

This patch adds the missing reset of queue indices.  Together with the
previous fix for the ioctl/read race, we cover the whole problem.
