CVE-2013-3228

BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1172380

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 irda_recvmsg_dgram() not filling the msg_name in case it was
set.

Great, I forgot to update the Subject: line with serie and CVE
number.

Looks to be a valid backport of the above commit id.  Looks to do what
is claimed.
