drivers/net/usb/hso.c: prevent reading uninitialized memory
Fixed formatting (tabs and line breaks). The TIOCGICOUNT device ioctl allows unprivileged users to read uninitialized stack memory, because the "reserved" member of the serial_icounter_struct struct declared on the stack in hso_get_count() is not altered or zeroed before being copied back to the user. This patch takes care of it. Signed-off-by: Dan Rosenberg <dan.j.rosenberg@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
