Subject: [PATCH 3.2 87/94] USB: usbfs: fix potential infoleak in devio

3.2.82-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Kangjie Lu <kangjielu@...il.com>

commit 681fef8380eb818c0b845fca5d2ab1dcbab114ee upstream.

The stack object “ci” has a total size of 8 bytes. Its last 3 bytes
are padding bytes which are not initialized and leaked to userland
via “copy_to_user”.
