Subject[ 162/184] dcbnl: fix various netlink info leaks
2.6.32-longterm review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Mathias Krause <minipli@googlemail.com>

commit 29cd8ae0e1a39e239a3a7b67da1986add1199fc0 upstream.

The dcb netlink interface leaks stack memory in various places:
* perm_addr[] buffer is only filled at max with 12 of the 32 bytes but
copied completely,
* no in-kernel driver fills all fields of an IEEE 802.1Qaz subcommand,
so we're leaking up to 58 bytes for ieee_ets structs, up to 136 bytes
for ieee_pfc structs, etc.,
* the same is true for CEE -- no in-kernel driver fills the whole
struct,

Prevent all of the above stack info leaks by properly initializing the
buffers/structures involved.

[bwh: Backported to 2.6.32: no support for IEEE or CEE commands, so only
deal with perm_addr]
