[PATCH] Suspected information leak (mem pages) in ext2

I think I have discovered a potential security problem in ext2: when a
new directory is created, the ext2 block written to disk is not
initialized.

Included is a proposed patch for Linux 2.6 (ext2_make_empty() function):

CAN-2005-0400 is assigned to this issue.
