[093/127] net sched: fix kernel leak in act_police

From: Greg KH
Date: Tue Dec 07 2010 - 19:54:23 EST


2.6.32-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

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

From: Jeff Mahoney <jeffm@xxxxxxxx>

commit 0f04cfd098fb81fded74e78ea1a1b86cc6c6c31e upstream.

While reviewing commit 1c40be12f7d8ca1d387510d39787b12e512a7ce8, I
audited other users of tc_action_ops->dump for information leaks.

That commit covered almost all of them but act_police still had a leak.

opt.limit and opt.capab aren't zeroed out before the structure is
passed out.

This patch uses the C99 initializers to zero everything unused out.
