Subject: [PATCH] tpm: fix a kernel memory leak in tpm-sysfs.c
References: bnc#1060662
Patch-mainline: 4.12.1
Git-commit: 13b47cfcfc60495cde216eef4c01040d76174cbe

commit 13b47cfcfc60495cde216eef4c01040d76174cbe upstream.

While cleaning up sysfs callback that prints EK we discovered a kernel
memory leak. This commit fixes the issue by zeroing the buffer used for
TPM command/response.

The leak happen when we use either tpm_vtpm_proxy, tpm_ibmvtpm or
xen-tpmfront.
