net: ax25: fix information leak to userland

Sometimes ax25_getname() doesn't initialize all members of fsa_digipeater field of fsa struct, also the struct has padding bytes between sax25_call and sax25_ndigis fields. This structure is then copied to userland. It leads to leaking of contents of kernel stack memory. Signed-off-by: Vasiliy Kulikov <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: David S.
