Subject: [PATCH 4.9 020/223] media: mc-device.c: dont memset __user pointer contents

[ Upstream commit 518fa4e0e0da97ea2e17c95ab57647ce748a96e2 ]

You can't memset the contents of a __user pointer. Instead, call copy_to_user to
copy links.reserved (which is zeroed) to the user memory.

This fixes this sparse warning:

SPARSE:drivers/media/mc/mc-device.c drivers/media/mc/mc-device.c:521:16:  warning: incorrect type in argument 1 (different address spaces)

Fixes: f49308878d720 ("media: media_device_enum_links32: clean a reserved field")
