Vladimir Oltean 3eb4a4c344 net: switchdev: add reminder near struct switchdev_notifier_fdb_info
br_switchdev_fdb_notify() creates an on-stack FDB info variable, and
initializes it member by member. As such, newly added fields which are
not initialized by br_switchdev_fdb_notify() will contain junk bytes
from the stack.

Other uses of struct switchdev_notifier_fdb_info have a struct
initializer which should put zeroes in the uninitialized fields.

Add a reminder above the structure for future developers. Recently
discussed during review.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
