smb: Work around Clang __bdos() type confusion
Recent versions of Clang gets confused about the possible size of the
"user" allocation, and CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE ends up emitting a
warning[1]:
repro.c:126:4: warning: call to '__write_overflow_field' declared with 'warning' attribute: detected write beyond size of field (1st parameter); maybe use struct_group()? [-Wattribute-warning]
126 | __write_overflow_field(p_size_field, size);
| ^
for this memset():
int len;
__le16 *user;
...
len = ses->user_name ? strlen(ses->user_name) : 0;
user = kmalloc(2 + (len * 2), GFP_KERNEL);
...
if (len) {
...
} else {
memset(user, '\0', 2);
}
While Clang works on this bug[2], switch to using a direct assignment,
which avoids memset() entirely which both simplifies the code and silences
the false positive warning. (Making "len" size_t also silences the
warning, but the direct assignment seems better.)
