Subject: [PATCH 3.8 88/91] Staging: sb105x: info leak in mp_get_count()

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

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

From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@...cle.com>

commit a8b33654b1e3b0c74d4a1fed041c9aae50b3c427 upstream.

The icount.reserved[] array isn't initialized so it leaks stack
information to userspace.
