[PATCH 58/64] powerpc: Split memset() to avoid multi-field overflow

From: Kees Cook <hidden>
Date: 2021-07-27 21:17:29
Also in: dri-devel, linux-hardening, linux-kbuild, linux-staging, linux-wireless, lkml, netdev
Subsystem: linux for power macintosh, the rest · Maintainer: Linus Torvalds

In preparation for FORTIFY_SOURCE performing compile-time and run-time
field bounds checking for memset(), avoid intentionally writing across
neighboring fields.

Instead of writing across a field boundary with memset(), move the call
to just the array, and an explicit zeroing of the prior field.
