Subject[PATCH 3.16 091/178] USB: fix linked-list corruption in rh_call_control()
3.16.46-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Alan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu>

commit 1633682053a7ee8058e10c76722b9b28e97fb73f upstream.

Using KASAN, Dmitry found a bug in the rh_call_control() routine: If
buffer allocation fails, the routine returns immediately without
unlinking its URB from the control endpoint, eventually leading to
linked-list corruption.

This patch fixes the problem by jumping to the end of the routine
(where the URB is unlinked) when an allocation failure occurs.
