Alan Stern 7652dd2c5c USB: core: Check buffer length matches wLength for control transfers
A type of inconsistency that can show up in control URBs is when the
setup packet's wLength value does not match the URB's
transfer_buffer_length field.  The two should always be equal;
differences could lead to information leaks or undefined behavior for
OUT transfers or overruns for IN transfers.

This patch adds a test for such mismatches during URB submission.  If
the test fails, the submission is rejected with a -EBADR error code
(which is not used elsewhere in the USB core), and a debugging message
is logged for people interested in tracking down these errors.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
