Subject: [Linux-kernel-mentees] [PATCH v3] block/scsi-ioctl: Prevent kernel-infoleak in scsi_put_cdrom_generic_arg()
scsi_put_cdrom_generic_arg() is potentially copying uninitialized stack
memory to userspace, since the compiler may leave a 3-byte hole in the
middle of `cgc32`. Prevent it by adding a padding field to `struct
compat_cdrom_generic_command`.

Fixes: f3ee6e63a9df ("compat_ioctl: move CDROM_SEND_PACKET handling into scsi")

Change in v3:
- Improve commit message. scsi_put_cdrom_generic_arg() does not
*always* leak kernel information. It is compiler dependent.
Reference: https://www.nccgroup.com/us/about-us/newsroom-and-events/blog/2019/october/padding-the-struct-how-a-compiler-optimization-can-disclose-stack-memory/
- Base the patch against mainline 5.9-rc4.
Change in v2:
- Add a padding field to `struct compat_cdrom_generic_command`,
instead of doing memset() on `cgc32`. (Suggested by Jens Axboe
<axboe@...nel.dk>)
