From 8b0d77f13192678019f07cbc6b3338d6d91f1cf4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Cong Wang Date: Wed, 3 Jul 2013 15:01:12 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] block/compat_ioctl.c: do not leak info to user-space There is a hole in struct hd_geometry, so we have to zero the struct on stack before copying it to user-space.
