mwave: fix info leak in mwave_ioctl()
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Smatch complains that on 64 bit systems, there is a hole in the
MW_ABILITIES struct between ->component_count and ->component_list[].
It leaks stack information from the mwave_ioctl() function.

I've added a memset() to initialize the struct to zero.
