4.6-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Ville Viinikka <ville@xxxxxxxxxx> commit bfe5b1b1e013f7b1c0fd2ac3b3c8c380114b3fb9 upstream. Set 'idata->buf' to NULL so that it never gets returned without initialization. This fixes a bug where mmc_blk_ioctl_cmd() would free both 'idata' and 'idata->buf' but 'idata->buf' was returned uninitialized.
