Jan Kara d678ff440d ext4: avoid writing unitialized memory to disk in EA inodes 
[ Upstream commit 65121eff3e ]

If the extended attribute size is not a multiple of block size, the last
block in the EA inode will have uninitialized tail which will get
written to disk. We will never expose the data to userspace but still
this is not a good practice so just zero out the tail of the block as it
isn't going to cause a noticeable performance overhead.

Fixes: e50e5129f3 ("ext4: xattr-in-inode support")

README 

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.
