Zhongqiu Han cab1852368 jfs: Fix uninit-value access of imap allocated in the diMount() function
[ Upstream commit 9629d7d66c ]

syzbot reports that hex_dump_to_buffer is using uninit-value:

=====================================================

The reason is that imap is not properly initialized after memory
allocation. It will cause the snprintf() function to write uninitialized
data into linebuf within hex_dump_to_buffer().

Fix this by using kzalloc instead of kmalloc to clear its content at the
beginning in diMount().

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
