Subject: [PATCH 3.2 45/46] net: fix infoleak in rtnetlink

3.2.81-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Kangjie Lu <kangjielu@...il.com>

commit 5f8e44741f9f216e33736ea4ec65ca9ac03036e6 upstream.

The stack object “map” has a total size of 32 bytes. Its last 4
bytes are padding generated by compiler. These padding bytes are
not initialized and sent out via “nla_put”.
