Date: Fri, 19 Feb 2010 21:00:02 +0100 (CET) From: Stefan Richter Subject: firewire: core: fix an information leak If a device exposes a sparsely populated configuration ROM, firewire-core's sysfs interface and character device file interface showed random data in the gaps between config ROM blocks. Fix this by zero-initialization of the config ROM reader's scratch buffer.
