Xin Long 4a2eb0c37b sctp: initialize sin6_flowinfo for ipv6 addrs in sctp_inet6addr_event
syzbot reported a kernel-infoleak, which is caused by an uninitialized
field(sin6_flowinfo) of addr->a.v6 in sctp_inet6addr_event().
The call trace is as below:

  BUG: KMSAN: kernel-infoleak in _copy_to_user+0x19a/0x230 lib/usercopy.c:33

sin6_flowinfo is not really used by SCTP, so it will be fixed by simply
setting it to 0.

The issue exists since very beginning.
Thanks Alexander for the reproducer provided.

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.
