[PATCH net-next] net: sk_buff: memset(skb,0) after alloc in skb_clone

[Govindarajulu Varadarajan <govindarajulu90@gmail.com>]

The following patch memset the skb to 0 after alloc. We do this in
__alloc_skb_head, __alloc_skb, build_skb. We are missing this in
skb_clone.

The following call to __skb_clone in skb_clone does not copy all the
members of sk_buff. If we donot clear the skb to 0, we will have some
uninitialized members in new skb.
