commit 19ab233989 upstream.
Use kzalloc() rather than kmalloc() for the dynamically allocated parts
of the colormap in fb_alloc_cmap_gfp, to prevent a leak of random kernel
data to userspace under certain circumstances.
Fixes a KMSAN-found infoleak bug reported by syzbot at:

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
