/*\
 * [Description]
 *
 * CVE-2018-11508: Test 4-byte kernel data leak via adjtimex.
 *
 * On calling the adjtimex() function call with invalid mode (let's say
 * 0x8000), ideally all the parameters should return with null data. But,
 * when we read the last parameter we will receive 4 bytes of kernel data.
 * This proves that there are 4 bytes of info leaked. The bug was fixed in
 * Kernel Version 4.16.9. Therefore, the below test case will only be
 * applicable for the kernel version 4.16.9 and above.
 *
 * So basically, this test shall check whether there is any data leak.
 * To test that, Pass struct timex buffer filled with zero with
 * some INVALID mode to the system call adjtimex. Passing an invalid
 * parameters will not call do_adjtimex() and before that, it shall throw
 * an error(On error test shall not break). Therefore, none of the parameters
 * will get initialized.
 *
 * On reading the last attribute tai of the struct, if the attribute is non-
 * zero the test is considered to have failed, else the test is considered
 * to have passed.
