From: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@xxxxxxx> This patch has been added to the 3.12 stable tree. If you have any objections, please let us know. =============== commit 317168d0c766defd14b3d0e9c2c4a9a258b803ee upstream. In compat mode, we copy each field of snd_pcm_status struct but don't touch the reserved fields, and this leaves uninitialized values there. Meanwhile the native ioctl does zero-clear the whole structure, so we should follow the same rule in compat mode, too.
