s390/qdio: fix access to uninitialized qdio_q fields
Ever since CQ/QAOB support was added, calling qdio_free() straight after qdio_alloc() results in qdio_release_memory() accessing uninitialized memory (ie. q->u.out.use_cq and q->u.out.aobs). Followed by a kmem_cache_free() on the random AOB addresses. For older kernels that don't have 6e30c549f6ca, the same applies if qdio_establish() fails in the DEV_STATE_ONLINE check. While initializing q->u.out.use_cq would be enough to fix this particular bug, the more future-proof change is to just zero-alloc the whole struct. Fixes: 104ea556ee7f ("qdio: support asynchronous delivery of storage blocks") Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> #v3.2+ Signed-off-by: Julian Wiedmann <jwi@linux.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>
