I don't think this patch adds anything useful.

If you just want to avoid uninitialized memory to be returned,
then just do: "u8 buf[2] = {};".

Alternatively, this function should return an int and callers
have to check if an error (<0) was returned and pass that on.

I think the latter is overkill, but I'll take a patch that just
zeroes buf.
