Subject: [PATCH 3.16 101/114] net: fix infoleak in llc

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

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

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

commit b8670c09f37bdf2847cc44f36511a53afc6161fd upstream.

The stack object “info” has a total size of 12 bytes. Its last byte
is padding which is not initialized and leaked via “put_cmsg”.
