    net: ethtool: clear heap allocations for ethtool function
    
    [ Upstream commit 80ec82e3d2c1fab42eeb730aaa7985494a963d3f ]
    
    Several ethtool functions leave heap uncleared (potentially) by
    drivers. This will leave the unused portion of heap unchanged and
    might copy the full contents back to userspace.
