Subject: [PATCH net-next] ip_tunnel: harden copying IP tunnel params to userspace

Structures which are about to be copied to userspace shouldn't have
uninitialized fields or paddings.
memset() the whole &ip_tunnel_parm in ip_tunnel_parm_to_user() before
filling it with the kernel data. The compilers will hopefully combine
writes to it.

Fixes: 117aef12a7b1 ("ip_tunnel: use a separate struct to store tunnel params in the kernel")
Reported-by: Dan Carpenter <[email protected]>
Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/[email protected]
