Subject: [45/63] USB: Fix bad dma problem on WDM device disconnect

2.6.38-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

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

From: Robert Lukassen <Robert.Lukassen@...tom.com>

commit 878b753e32ca765cd346a5d3038d630178ec78ff upstream.

In the WDM class driver a disconnect event leads to calls to
usb_free_coherent to put back two USB DMA buffers allocated earlier.
The call to usb_free_coherent uses a different size parameter
(desc->wMaxCommand) than the corresponding call to usb_alloc_coherent
(desc->bMaxPacketSize0).

When a disconnect event occurs, this leads to 'bad dma' complaints
from usb core because the USB DMA buffer is being pushed back to the
'buffer-2048' pool from which it has not been allocated.

This patch against the most recent linux-2.6 kernel ensures that the
parameters used by usb_alloc_coherent & usb_free_coherent calls in
cdc-wdm.c match.
