    ctl: fix memory disclosure in read/write buffer commands
    
    The functions ctl_write_buffer() and ctl_read_buffer() are vulnerable to
    a kernel memory disclosure caused by an uninitialized kernel allocation.
    If one of these functions is called for the first time for a given LUN, a
    kernel allocation is performed without the M_ZERO flag. Then a call to
    ctl_read_buffer() returns the content of this allocation, which may
    contain kernel data.
