From: Kiran Patil <kiran.patil@xxxxxxxxx> Fix: When FIP frame is received, function fcoe_ctlr_vn_recv calls function fcoe_ctlr_vn_parse which does memset for addr (&buf.rdata) which leads to memory corruption. Code was trying to treat "buf" as struct but it was defined as union. Fix is to change from union to struct for "buf" in function fcoe_ctlr_vn_recv.
