Subject: [ 13/42] l2tp: fix info leak in l2tp_ip6_recvmsg()

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

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


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

[ Upstream commit b860d3cc62877fad02863e2a08efff69a19382d2 ]

The L2TP code for IPv6 fails to initialize the l2tp_conn_id member of
struct sockaddr_l2tpip6 and therefore leaks four bytes kernel stack
in l2tp_ip6_recvmsg() in case msg_name is set.

Initialize l2tp_conn_id with 0 to avoid the info leak.
