Subject: [ 061/135] Bluetooth: RFCOMM - Fix info leak in  getsockopt(BT_SECURITY)

3.2-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Mathias Krause <minipli@...glemail.com>

[ Upstream commit 9ad2de43f1aee7e7274a4e0d41465489299e344b ]

The RFCOMM code fails to initialize the key_size member of struct
bt_security before copying it to userland -- that for leaking one
byte kernel stack. Initialize key_size with 0 to avoid the info
leak.
