copy_one_buf() is copying uninitialized stack memory to userspace due to
the compiler not initializing holes in statically allocated structures.
Fix it by initializing `v` with memset().

I would add 'potentially' somewhere in that description: it is architecture
dependent whether there are holes in this structure as 'enum' types
and 'long' are both dependent on the ABI, and even if there is a hole,
it is undefined behavior whether the hold gets initialized.

Other than that, the patch looks good.

I see. I will fix that up. Thank you for the advice!
