3.2.45-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Mathias Krause <minipli@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 72a763d805a48ac8c0bf48fdb510e84c12de51fe upstream. The current code does not set the msg_namelen member to 0 and therefore makes net/socket.c leak the local sockaddr_storage variable to userland -- 128 bytes of kernel stack memory. Fix that.
