SubjectRe: [PATCH] fs/binfmt_elf.c: allocate initialized memory in fill_thread_core_info()

I don't think anything changed on the kernel side recently.
But I've made some changes to DMA handling recently, which made uninit
writes to the disk discoverable.
We don't use core dumping on syzbot (because the auto-generated
programs crash all the time), so it could be a very old bug that was
triggered in a non-standard setup.
