ipmr: prevent info-leak in pmr_cache_report()
Yiming Qian reported: <quote> ipmr_cache_report()` allocates a report skb with `alloc_skb(128, GFP_ATOMIC)` and appends a `struct igmphdr` using `skb_put()`. In the non-`IGMPMSG_WHOLEPKT` path it initializes only: - `igmp->type` - `igmp->code` but does not initialize: - `igmp->csum` - `igmp->group` Later, `igmpmsg_netlink_event()` copies the bytes after `sizeof(struct igmpmsg)` into the `IPMRA_CREPORT_PKT` netlink attribute and emits `RTM_NEWCACHEREPORT` on `RTNLGRP_IPV4_MROUTE_R`. As a result, 6 bytes of stale heap data from the skb head are disclosed to userspace. </quote> Let's use skb_put_zero() instead of skb_put() to fix this bug.
