[Linux-kernel-mentees] [PATCH net v2] xdp: Prevent kernel-infoleak in xsk_getsockopt()

[Peilin Ye]

xsk_getsockopt() is copying uninitialized stack memory to userspace when
`extra_stats` is `false`. Fix it.

Doing `= {};` is sufficient since currently `struct xdp_statistics` is
defined as follows:

struct xdp_statistics {
	__u64 rx_dropped;
	__u64 rx_invalid_descs;
	__u64 tx_invalid_descs;
	__u64 rx_ring_full;
	__u64 rx_fill_ring_empty_descs;
	__u64 tx_ring_empty_descs;
};

When being copied to the userspace, `stats` will not contain any
uninitialized "holes" between struct fields.

Changes in v2:
    - Remove the "Cc: stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" tag. (Suggested by Song Liu
      <songliubraving@xxxxxx>)
    - Initialize `stats` by assignment instead of using memset().
      (Suggested by Song Liu <songliubraving@xxxxxx>)
