Subject: [PATCH] proc connector: fix info leaks
commit e727ca82e0e9616ab4844301e6bae60ca7327682 upstream.
Initialize event_data for all possible message types to prevent leaking
kernel stack contents to userland (up to 20 bytes). Also set the flags
member of the connector message to 0 to prevent leaking two more stack
bytes this way.

[ luis: backported to 3.5, using davem's port to 3.4:
- adjusted context
- dropped changes to proc_coredump_connector() ]
