Here is a patch that fixes this problem, along with the S_FMT problem you
patched earlier.  TRY_FMT had the same problem as S_FMT, so I fixed that
one as well too.

v4l2-ioctl: Clear buffer type specific trailing fields/padding

From: Trent Piepho <xyzzy@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Some ioctls have structs that are a different size depending on what type
of buffer is being used.  If the buffer type leaves a field unused or has
padding space at the end, this space should be zeroed out.

The problems with S_FMT and REQBUFS were original identified and patched by
Márton Németh <nm127@xxxxxxxxxxx>.

Priority: normal
