[PATCH 55/64] RDMA/mlx5: Use struct_group() to zero struct mlx5_ib_mr

From: Kees Cook <hidden>
Date: 2021-07-27 21:07:06
Also in: dri-devel, linux-block, linux-hardening, linux-kbuild, linux-staging, linux-wireless, lkml
Subsystem: infiniband subsystem, mellanox mlx5 ib driver, the rest · Maintainers: Jason Gunthorpe, Leon Romanovsky, Linus Torvalds

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

Add struct_group() to mark region of struct mlx5_ib_mr that should be
initialized to zero.
