3.8-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Mathias Krause <minipli@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit c085c49920b2f900ba716b4ca1c1a55ece9872cc ] The bridging code discloses heap and stack bytes via the RTM_GETMDB netlink interface and via the notify messages send to group RTNLGRP_MDB afer a successful add/del. Fix both cases by initializing all unset members/padding bytes with memset(0).
