A short write.

The length of the data passed in by the user is 3 bytes, plus a TMC header
length of 12 bytes and an additional 3 bytes. The actual length of the
data sent to the device is 16 bytes((3 + 12 + 3)~3 = 16).
Normally, when executing copy_from_user, the 3 bytes data passed in by
the user is written after the TMC header, which initializes the first 15
bytes of the 16 bytes. But it is not yet clear why the 15th byte is not
initialized. The kernel data leaked to user space reported by Syzbot
should be it.
