3.2.54-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Benjamin Tissoires <benjamin.tissoi...@redhat.com>
commit 8821f5dc187bdf16cfb32ef5aa8c3035273fa79a upstream.
When working on report indexes, always validate that they are in bounds.
Without this, a HID device could report a malicious feature report that
could trick the driver into a heap overflow:
[ 634.885003] usb 1-1: New USB device found, idVendor=0596, idProduct=0500
...
[ 676.469629] BUG kmalloc-192 (Tainted: G W ): Redzone overwritten
Note that we need to change the indexes from s8 to s16 as they can
be between -1 and 255.
CVE-2013-2897

[bwh: Backported to 3.2: mt_device::{cc,cc_value,inputmode}_index do not
exist and the corresponding indices do not need to be validated.
mt_device::maxcontact_report_id does not exist either. So all we need
to do is to widen mt_device::inputmode.]
