[ 016/127] llc: fix info leak via getsockname()

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

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


From: Mathias Krause <minipli@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 3592aaeb80290bda0f2cf0b5456c97bfc638b192 ]

The LLC code wrongly returns 0, i.e. "success", when the socket is
zapped. Together with the uninitialized uaddrlen pointer argument from
sys_getsockname this leads to an arbitrary memory leak of up to 128
bytes kernel stack via the getsockname() syscall.

Return an error instead when the socket is zapped to prevent the info
leak. Also remove the unnecessary memset(0). We don't directly write to
the memory pointed by uaddr but memcpy() a local structure at the end of
the function that is properly initialized.
