    powerpc: Zero fill the return values of rtas argument buffer · b79998fc
    Nathan Fontenot 提交于
    The kernel copy of the rtas args struct contains the return
    value(s) for the specified rtas call.  These are copied back
    to user space with the assumption that every value has been
    set by the rtas call, which turns out to be not always true.
    Thus userspace can see random values and think the call failed
    when in fact it succeeded, but for some reason didn't set one
    of the return values.
    
    This fixes the problem by zeroing out the return value fields
    of the rtas args struct before processing the rtas call.
