tcm_loop: Add explict read buffer memset for SCF_SCSI_CONTROL_SG_IO_CDB
This patch addresses an issue with buggy userspace code sending I/O via scsi-generic that does not explictly clear their associated read buffers. It adds an explict memset of the first SGL entry within tcm_loop_new_cmd_map() for SCF_SCSI_CONTROL_SG_IO_CDB payloads that are currently guaranteed to be a single SGL by target-core code. This issue is a side effect of the v3.1-rc1 merge to remove the extra memcpy between certain control CDB types using a contigious + cleared buffer in target-core, and performing a memcpy into the SGL list within tcm_loop. It was originally mainfesting itself by udev + scsi_id + scsi-generic not properly setting up the expected /dev/disk/by-id/ symlinks because the INQUIRY payload was containing extra bogus data preventing the proper NAA IEEE WWN from being parsed by userspace.
