xfs: prevent reading uninitialized stack memory

Browse Source 
The XFS_IOC_FSGETXATTR ioctl allows unprivileged users to read 12
bytes of uninitialized stack memory, because the fsxattr struct
declared on the stack in xfs_ioc_fsgetxattr() does not alter (or zero)
the 12-byte fsx_pad member before copying it back to the user.  This
patch takes care of it.
