[patch 4/5] fs/binfmt_elf.c: allocate initialized memory in fill_thread_core_info()

[Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>]

From: Alexander Potapenko <glider@google.com>
Subject: fs/binfmt_elf.c: allocate initialized memory in fill_thread_core_info()

KMSAN reported uninitialized data being written to disk when dumping core.
As a result, several kilobytes of kmalloc memory may be written to the
core file and then read by a non-privileged user.
