4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@xxxxxxxxxx> commit a72b69dc083a931422cc8a5e33841aff7d5312f2 upstream. The vhost_vsock->guest_cid field is uninitialized when /dev/vhost-vsock is opened until the VHOST_VSOCK_SET_GUEST_CID ioctl is called. kvmalloc(..., GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL) does not zero memory. All other vhost_vsock fields are initialized explicitly so just initialize this field too. Signed-off-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Michael S.
