3.6.11.3 stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Mathias Krause [ Upstream commit 72a763d805a48ac8c0bf48fdb510e84c12de51fe ] The current code does not set the msg_namelen member to 0 and therefore makes net/socket.c leak the local sockaddr_storage variable to userland -- 128 bytes of kernel stack memory. Fix that.
