dom_bef is use to cache current domain record only if current domain
exists. But when current domain does not exist, dom_bef will still be used
in mon_identify_lost_members. This may lead to an information leak.

Fix this by adding a memset before using dom_bef.

AFAICT applied_bef must be zero if peer->domain was 0, so I don't think
mon_identify_lost_members() will do anything.

void tipc_mon_rcv(struct net *net, void *data, u16 dlen, u32 addr,
		  struct tipc_mon_state *state, int bearer_id)
{
...
	if (!dom || (dom->len < new_dlen)) {
		kfree(dom);
		dom = kmalloc(new_dlen, GFP_ATOMIC);	<--- [1]
		peer->domain = dom;
		if (!dom)
			goto exit;
	}
...
}

peer->domain will be NULL when [1] fails. But there will not change 
peer->applied to 0. In this case, if tipc_mon_rcv is called again then 
an information leak will happen.

Thanks,
Hangyu.

I see, good analysis! Jon, Xue - is there a reason domain gets wiped
on memory allocation failure? I'd think we should leave the previous
pointer in place instead of freeing it first.
