packet_getname_spkt() doesn't initialize all members of sa_data field of
sockaddr struct if strlen(dev->name) < 13.  This structure is then copied
to userland.  It leads to leaking of contents of kernel stack memory.
We have to fully fill sa_data with strncpy() instead of strlcpy().

The same with packet_getname(): it doesn't initialize sll_pkttype field of
sockaddr_ll.  Set it to zero.
