Also the sax25_ndigis member does not get assigned, leaking four more bytes. Both issues lead to the fact that the code will leak uninitialized kernel stack bytes in net/socket.c. Fix both issues by initializing the memory with memset(0). Signed-off-by: Mathias Krause Cc: Ralf Baechle Signed-off-by: David S.
