Subject: [PATCH 4.4 130/192] [PATCH 134/135] tipc: fix an infoleak in tipc_nl_compat_link_dump

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

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

[ Upstream commit 5d2be1422e02ccd697ccfcd45c85b4a26e6178e2 ]

link_info.str is a char array of size 60. Memory after the NULL
byte is not initialized. Sending the whole object out can cause
a leak.
