From: Matan Barak Date: Tue, 18 Apr 2017 09:03:39 +0000 (+0300) Subject: IB/core: Nullify ib_uobject during allocation X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=d9edfc5a4f81165e64d4ad6e423a8554c88dd0de;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git IB/core: Nullify ib_uobject during allocation Currently, we initialize all fields of ib_uobject straight after allocation. Therefore, a kmalloc was sufficient. Since ib_uobject could be embedded in a type specific structure, we nullify it to spare programmer errors.
