Kees Cook 4c93496f18 IB/rxe: do not copy extra stack memory to skb
This fixes a over-read condition detected by FORTIFY_SOURCE for this
line:

	memcpy(SKB_TO_PKT(skb), &ack_pkt, sizeof(skb->cb));

The error was:

  In file included from ./include/linux/bitmap.h:8:0,
                   from ./include/linux/cpumask.h:11,
                   from ./include/linux/mm_types_task.h:13,

                   from drivers/infiniband/sw/rxe/rxe_resp.c:34:

  ./include/linux/string.h:309:4: error: call to '__read_overflow2' declared with attribute error: detected read beyond size of object passed as 2nd parameter
      __read_overflow2();

Daniel Micay noted that struct rxe_pkt_info is 32 bytes on 32-bit
architectures, but skb->cb is still 64.  The memcpy() over-reads 32
bytes.  This fixes it by zeroing the unused bytes in skb->cb.

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

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
