drivers/net/cxgb3/cxgb3_main.c: prevent reading uninitialized stack memory
Fixed formatting (tabs and line breaks). The CHELSIO_GET_QSET_NUM device ioctl allows unprivileged users to read 4 bytes of uninitialized stack memory, because the "addr" member of the ch_reg struct declared on the stack in cxgb_extension_ioctl() 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>
