x86/boot: Save fields explicitly, zero out everything else
BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1845036 commit a90118c4 upstream. Recent gcc compilers (gcc 9.1) generate warnings about an out of bounds memset, if the memset goes accross several fields of a struct. This generated a couple of warnings on x86_64 builds in sanitize_boot_params(). Fix this by explicitly saving the fields in struct boot_params that are intended to be preserved, and zeroing all the rest. [ tglx: Tagged for stable as it breaks the warning free build there as well ] Suggested-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Suggested-by: H.
