3.5.7.29 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: =?UTF-8?q?Salva=20Peir=C3=B3?= <speiro at ai2.upv.es>

commit 8e3fbf870481eb53b2d3a322d1fc395ad8b367ed upstream.

The yam_ioctl() code fails to initialise the cmd field
of the struct yamdrv_ioctl_cfg. Add an explicit memset(0)
before filling the structure to avoid the 4-byte info leak.
