3.16.78-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Tomas Bortoli <tomasbortoli@xxxxxxxxx> commit ead16e53c2f0ed946d82d4037c630e2f60f4ab69 upstream. Uninitialized Kernel memory can leak to USB devices. Fix by using kzalloc() instead of kmalloc() on the affected buffers.
