3.2.63-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Johan Hovold <jo...@kernel.org>
commit 5654699fb38512bdbfc0f892ce54fce75bdc2bab upstream.
Make sure to verify the number of ports requested by subdriver to avoid
writing beyond the end of fixed-size array in interface data.
The current usb-serial implementation is limited to eight ports per
interface but failed to verify that the number of ports requested by a
subdriver (which could have been determined from device descriptors) did
not exceed this limit.
