Subject: [PATCH 4.19 28/33] xen/netfront: fix leaking data in shared pages

From: Roger Pau Monne <roger.pau@...rix.com>

commit 307c8de2b02344805ebead3440d8feed28f2f010 upstream.

When allocating pages to be used for shared communication with the
backend always zero them, this avoids leaking unintended data present
on the pages.

This is CVE-2022-33740, part of XSA-403.
