3.13.11.1 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Matthew Daley <mattd@xxxxxxxxxxx> commit ef87dbe7614341c2e7bfe8d32fcb7028cc97442c upstream. Always clear out these floppy_raw_cmd struct members after copying the entire structure from userspace so that the in-kernel version is always valid and never left in an interdeterminate state.
