3.10-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: James Forshaw <forshaw@google.com>
commit 6817ae225cd650fb1c3295d769298c38b1eba818 upstream.
This patch fixes a potential security issue in the whiteheat USB driver which might allow a local attacker to cause kernel memory corrpution. This is due to an unchecked memcpy into a fixed size buffer (of 64 bytes). On EHCI and XHCI busses it's possible to craft responses greater than 64 bytes leading a buffer overflow.
