4.5-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Nicolai Stange <nicstange@xxxxxxxxx>
commit e54358915d0a00399c11c2c23ae1be674cba188a upstream.
Despite what the DocBook comment to pkcs7_validate_trust() says, the
*_trusted argument is never set to false.
pkcs7_validate_trust() only positively sets *_trusted upon encountering
a trusted PKCS#7 SignedInfo block.
This is quite unfortunate since its callers, system_verify_data() for
example, depend on pkcs7_validate_trust() clearing *_trusted on non-trust.
Indeed, UBSAN splats when attempting to load the uninitialized local
variable 'trusted' from system_verify_data() in pkcs7_validate_trust():
UBSAN: Undefined behaviour in crypto/asymmetric_keys/pkcs7_trust.c:194:14
load of value 82 is not a valid value for type '_Bool'
[...]

The implication is that pkcs7_validate_trust() effectively grants trust
when it really shouldn't have.
Fix this by explicitly setting *_trusted to false at the very beginning
of pkcs7_validate_trust().
