If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Bartlomiej Kubik [ Upstream commit a8a3ca23bbd9d849308a7921a049330dc6c91398 ] KMSAN reports: Multiple uninitialized values detected: - KMSAN: uninit-value in ntfs_read_hdr (3) - KMSAN: uninit-value in bcmp (3) Memory is allocated by __getname(), which is a wrapper for kmem_cache_alloc(). This memory is used before being properly cleared. Change kmem_cache_alloc() to kmem_cache_zalloc() to properly allocate and clear memory before use.
