Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 4.19 04/16] net: ethtool: clear heap allocations for ethtool function

From: Austin Kim <austindh.kim@...il.com>

[ Upstream commit 80ec82e3d2c1fab42eeb730aaa7985494a963d3f ]

Several ethtool functions leave heap uncleared (potentially) by
drivers. This will leave the unused portion of heap unchanged and
might copy the full contents back to userspace.
