[PATCH 3.19.y-ckt 004/155] staging/dgnc: fix info leak in ioctl

[Kamal Mostafa]

3.19.8-ckt10 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: =?UTF-8?q?Salva=20Peir=C3=B3?= <speirofr@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 4b6184336ebb5c8dc1eae7f7ab46ee608a748b05 upstream.

The dgnc_mgmt_ioctl() code fails to initialize the 16 _reserved bytes of
struct digi_dinfo after the ->dinfo_nboards member. Add an explicit
memset(0) before filling the structure to avoid the info leak.
