CVE-2013-3222

BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1172365

The current code does not fill the msg_name member in case it is set.
It also does not set the msg_namelen member to 0 and therefore makes
net/socket.c leak the local, uninitialized sockaddr_storage variable
to userland -- 128 bytes of kernel stack memory.

Fix that by simply setting msg_namelen to 0 as obviously nobody cared
about vcc_recvmsg() not filling the msg_name in case it was set.

Is an upstream cherry-pick as claimed, seems to do what is expected.

I note there is a slight difference in context here, but I assume that
is cherry-pick being smart, rather than this being a backport.

Guess un-fuzzed. Not sure whether this then is already a backport or still
(mostly) a cherry-pick.

This is a simple cherry-pick.  As Andy stated in his email, its just
git being smart and not a backport.
