ipmr_cache_report()` allocates a report skb with `alloc_skb(128,
GFP_ATOMIC)` and appends a `struct igmphdr` using `skb_put()`. In the
non-`IGMPMSG_WHOLEPKT` path it initializes only:
- `igmp->type`
- `igmp->code`
but does not initialize:
- `igmp->csum`
- `igmp->group`
Later, `igmpmsg_netlink_event()` copies the bytes after `sizeof(struct
igmpmsg)` into the `IPMRA_CREPORT_PKT` netlink attribute and emits
`RTM_NEWCACHEREPORT` on `RTNLGRP_IPV4_MROUTE_R`.
As a result, 6 bytes of stale heap data from the skb head are
disclosed to userspace.

Let's use skb_put_zero() instead of skb_put() to fix this bug.
