Subject: [PATCH 4.9 037/117] net: 9p: initialize sun_server.sun_path to have addrs value only when addr is valid

From: Anant Thazhemadam <anant.thazhemadam@...il.com>

[ Upstream commit 7ca1db21ef8e0e6725b4d25deed1ca196f7efb28 ]

In p9_fd_create_unix, checking is performed to see if the addr (passed
as an argument) is NULL or not.
However, no check is performed to see if addr is a valid address, i.e.,
it doesn't entirely consist of only 0's.
The initialization of sun_server.sun_path to be equal to this faulty
addr value leads to an uninitialized variable, as detected by KMSAN.
Checking for this (faulty addr) and returning a negative error number
appropriately, resolves this issue.
