3.2.99-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@xxxxxxx> commit f658f17b5e0e339935dca23e77e0f3cad591926b upstream. The usb-audio driver may trigger an out-of-bound access at parsing a malformed selector unit, as it checks the header length only after evaluating bNrInPins field, which can be already above the given length. Fix it by adding the length check beforehand.
