synclink: fix info leak in ioctl
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
The hdlcdev_ioctl() code fails to initialize the two padding bytes of
struct sync_serial_settings after the ->loopback member. Add an explicit
memset(0) before filling the structure to avoid the info leak.
