2.6.35-longterm review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------
From: Vasiliy Kulikov <segooon@gmail.com>

commit eca67aaeebd6e5d22b0d991af1dd0424dc703bfb upstream.

Structure iowarrior_info is copied to userland with padding byted
between "serial" and "revision" fields uninitialized.  It leads to
leaking of contents of kernel stack memory.
