Subject: net: cdc_ncm: Fix TX zero padding
From: Jim Baxter <jim_baxter@mentor.com>
[ Upstream commit aeca3a77b1e0ed06a095933b89c86aed007383eb ]
The zero padding that is added to NTB's does
not zero the memory correctly.
This is because the skb_put modifies the value
of skb_out->len which results in the memset
command not setting any memory to zero as
(ctx->tx_max - skb_out->len) == 0.
I have resolved this by storing the size of
the memory to be zeroed before the skb_put
and using this in the memset call.
