drivers/net/usb/hso.c: prevent reading uninitialized memory
commit 7011e660938fc44ed86319c18a5954e95a82ab3e upstream. Fixed formatting (tabs and line breaks). The TIOCGICOUNT device ioctl allows unprivileged users to read uninitialized stack memory, because the "reserved" member of the serial_icounter_struct struct declared on the stack in hso_get_count() is not altered or zeroed before being copied back to the user. This patch takes care of it. Signed-off-by: Dan Rosenberg <dan.j.rosenberg@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
