3.8.13.11 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 58f09e00ae095e46ef9edfcf3a5fd9ccdfad065e upstream. The arg64 struct has a hole after ->buf_size which isn't cleared. Or if any of the calls to copy_from_user() fail then that would cause an information leak as well. This was assigned CVE-2013-2147.
