Ah, yes, we actually had an info-leak report for a bug in the sound
subsystem that was leaking data this way, which was misattributed to
raw-gadget. This makes sense to add and seems quite easy.

Oh, this is something we need to look into.

So you mean that we should look at actual_length rather than
transfer_buffer_length when initializing memory that comes from the
device?

Thank you, Alan!
