Subject: [PATCH 0/2] f_fs: better handle excess data on read

Between this set and Du, Changbin’s patch, we now have implementation
for the following three possibilities to choose from:
1. Buffer excess data (this whole patch set).
2. Fail the transfer (Du, Changbin’s patch).
3. Drop excess data (the first patch from this set).

As per earlier comments, I think 3. is the correct, i.e. the second
patch should not be ocmmited because:
* it complicates the code,
* doesn’t handle AIO anyway,
* introduces weird behaviours when partial read happens just before
  endpoint is disabled (we may end up silently dropping excess data
  anyway),
* goes beyond what UDC does and
* breaks one read -> one request model which has been true so far.

  usb: gadget: f_fs: buffer data from ‘oversized’ OUT requests
