Johan Hovold bec444cd1c USB: hub: fix non-SS hub-descriptor handling
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.

README

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

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

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.
