Subject: [PATCH 3.18 28/42] scsi: sg: fixup infoleak when using SG_GET_REQUEST_TABLE

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

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

From: Hannes Reinecke <hare@...e.de>

commit 3e0097499839e0fe3af380410eababe5a47c4cf9 upstream.

When calling SG_GET_REQUEST_TABLE ioctl only a half-filled table is
returned; the remaining part will then contain stale kernel memory
information.  This patch zeroes out the entire table to avoid this
issue.
