Subject: [PATCH] VDUSE: avoid leaking information to userspace
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The bounceing is not necessarily page aligned, so current VDUSE can
leak kernel information through mapping bounce pages to
userspace. Allocate bounce pages with __GFP_ZERO to avoid leaking
information to userspace.
