Subject: tcmu: Fix possbile memory leak / OOPs when recalculating cmd base size

From: Xiubo Li <[email protected]>

commit b3743c71b7c33a126d6d8942bb268775987400ec upstream.

For all the entries allocated from the ring cmd area, the memory is something like the stack memory, which will always reserve the old data, so the entry->req.iov_bidi_cnt maybe none zero.

On some environments, the crash could be reproduce very easy and some not. The following is the crash core trace as reported by Damien:

To fix this, just memset all the entry memory before using it, and also to be more readable we adjust the bidi code.

Fixed: fe25cc34795(tcmu: Recalculate the tcmu_cmd size to save cmd area
memories)
