Subject: [14/20] USB: cdc-wdm: updating desc->length must be protected by spin_lock

2.6.32-longterm review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Bjørn Mork <bjorn@...k.no>

commit c428b70c1e115c5649707a602742e34130d19428 upstream.

wdm_in_callback() will also touch this field, so we cannot change it without locking
