From: Brian Silverman <brian.silverman@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 89d58aebe14a365c25ba6645414afdbf4e41cea4 upstream. No information is deliberately sent in hf->flags in host -> device communications, but the open-source candleLight firmware echoes it back, which can result in the GS_CAN_FLAG_OVERFLOW flag being set and generating spurious ERRORFRAMEs. While there also initialize the reserved member with 0.
