Subject: i2c: fix kernel memory disclosure in dev interface
From: Vlad Tsyrklevich <vlad@tsyrklevich.net>
commit 30f939feaeee23e21391cfc7b484f012eb189c3c upstream.
i2c_smbus_xfer() does not always fill an entire block, allowing
kernel stack memory disclosure through the temp variable. Clear
it before it's read to.
