4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Johan Hovold <johan@xxxxxxxxxx> commit bec444cd1c94c48df409a35ad4e5b143c245c3f7 upstream. Add missing sanity check on the non-SuperSpeed hub-descriptor length in order to avoid parsing and leaking two bytes of uninitialised slab data through sysfs removable-attributes (or a compound-device debug statement). Note that we only make sure that the DeviceRemovable field is always present (and specifically ignore the unused PortPwrCtrlMask field) in order to continue support any hubs with non-compliant descriptors. As a further safeguard, the descriptor buffer is also cleared.
