commit d09c5373e8e4eaaa09233552cbf75dc4c4f21203 upstream.
Commit fd2d2b191fe7 ("s390: get_user() should zero on failure")
intended to fix s390's get_user() implementation which did not zero
the target operand if the read from user space faulted. Unfortunately
the patch has no effect: the corresponding inline assembly specifies
that the operand is only written to ("=") and the previous value is
discarded.
Therefore the compiler is free to and actually does omit the zero
initialization.
To fix this simply change the contraint modifier to "+", so the
compiler cannot omit the initialization anymore.
Fixes: c9ca78415ac1 ("s390/uaccess: provide inline variants of
get_user/put_user")
