ieee802154: ca8210: fix uninitialised data read

BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1786352
[ Upstream commit 86674a97f5055f4c7f406563408096e8cf9364ff ]

In ca8210_test_int_user_write() a user can request the transfer of a
frame with a length field (command.length) that is longer than the
actual buffer provided (len). In this scenario the driver will copy
the buffer contents into the uninitialised command[] buffer, then
transfer <data.length> bytes over the SPI even though only <len> bytes
had been populated, potentially leaking sensitive kernel memory.

Also the first 6 bytes of the command buffer must be initialised in case
a malformed, short packet is written and the uninitialised bytes are
read in ca8210_test_check_upstream.
