This fixes a over-read condition detected by FORTIFY_SOURCE for this
line:
memcpy(SKB_TO_PKT(skb), &ack_pkt, sizeof(skb->cb));
The error was:

Daniel Micay noted that struct rxe_pkt_info is 32 bytes on 32-bit
architectures, but skb->cb is still 64. The memcpy() over-reads 32
bytes. This fixes it by zeroing the unused bytes in skb->cb.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
