Subject: net: cdc_ether: fix divide by 0 on bad descriptors

From: Bjørn Mork <bjorn@xxxxxxx>


commit 2cb80187ba065d7decad7c6614e35e07aec8a974 upstream.

Setting dev->hard_mtu to 0 will cause a divide error in
usbnet_probe. Protect against devices with bogus CDC Ethernet
functional descriptors by ignoring a zero wMaxSegmentSize.
