Subject[PATCH 3.2 064/115] USB: mct_u232: add sanity checking in probe
3.2.80-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Oliver Neukum <oneukum@suse.com>

commit 4e9a0b05257f29cf4b75f3209243ed71614d062e upstream.

An attack using the lack of sanity checking in probe is known. This
patch checks for the existence of a second port.

CVE-2016-3136
