Subject: [PATCH 7/7] xfrm_user: fix info leak in build_aevent()

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

The memory reserved to dump the ID of the xfrm state includes a padding
byte in struct xfrm_usersa_id added by the compiler for alignment. To
prevent the heap info leak, memset(0) the sa_id before filling it.
