Subject[PATCH 4.4 142/210] quota: Fix possible GPF due to uninitialised pointers
Date
4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Nikolay Borisov <kernel@kyup.com>

commit ab73ef46398e2c0159f3a71de834586422d2a44a upstream.

When dqget() in __dquot_initialize() fails e.g. due to IO error,
__dquot_initialize() will pass an array of uninitialized pointers to
dqput_all() and thus can lead to deference of random data. Fix the
problem by properly initializing the array.
