Subject: [ 15/32] unix_diag: fix info leak

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

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

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

[ Upstream commit 6865d1e834be84ddd5808d93d5035b492346c64a ]

When filling the netlink message we miss to wipe the pad field,
therefore leak one byte of heap memory to userland. Fix this by
setting pad to 0.
