Johan Hovold 1aeabcce40 USB: serial: mct_u232: fix memory corruption with small endpoint
commit 915b36d701950503c4ea0f6e314b10868e59fce3 upstream.

The driver overrides the maximum transfer size for a specific device
which only accepts 16 byte packets for its 32 byte bulk-out endpoint.

Make sure to never increase the maximum transfer size to prevent slab
corruption should a malicious device report a smaller endpoint max
packet size than expected.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
