USB: serial/mos*: prevent reading uninitialized stack memory
The TIOCGICOUNT device ioctl in both mos7720.c and mos7840.c allows unprivileged users to read uninitialized stack memory, because the "reserved" member of the serial_icounter_struct struct declared on the stack 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> Cc: stable <stable@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
