3.2.93-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Johan Hovold <[email protected]>

commit 2c25a2c818023df64463aac3288a9f969491e507 upstream.

A SuperSpeed hub descriptor does not have any variable-length fields so
bail out when reading a short descriptor.

This avoids parsing and leaking two bytes of uninitialised slab data
through sysfs removable-attributes.

Fixes: dbe79bbe9dcb ("USB 3.0 Hub Changes")
