mainlining shenanigans
sr_ioctl.c uses this pattern:
result = sr_do_ioctl(cd, &cgc);
to-user = buffer[];
kfree(buffer);
return result;
Use of a buffer without checking leaks information. Check result and jump
over the use of buffer if there is an error.
result = sr_do_ioctl(cd, &cgc);
if (result)
goto err;
to-user = buffer[];
err:
kfree(buffer);
return result;
Additionally, initialize the buffer to zero.
This problem can be seen in the 2.4.0 kernel.

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.
