Ying Xue a88289f4dd tipc: fix uninit-value in in tipc_conn_rcv_sub
syzbot reported:

BUG: KMSAN: uninit-value in tipc_conn_rcv_sub+0x184/0x950 net/tipc/topsrv.c:373
CPU: 0 PID: 66 Comm: kworker/u4:4 Not tainted 4.17.0-rc3+ #88
Hardware name: Google Google Compute Engine/Google Compute Engine, BIOS Google 01/01/2011

Local variable description: ----s.i@tipc_conn_recv_work
Variable was created at:
 tipc_conn_recv_work+0x65/0x560 net/tipc/topsrv.c:419
 process_one_work+0x12c6/0x1f60 kernel/workqueue.c:2145

In tipc_conn_rcv_from_sock(), it always supposes the length of message
received from sock_recvmsg() is not smaller than the size of struct
tipc_subscr. However, this assumption is false. Especially when the
length of received message is shorter than struct tipc_subscr size,
we will end up touching uninitialized fields in tipc_conn_rcv_sub().

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

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.
