Subject: [PATCH 1/1] usb: abort on exception path

Function klsi_105_open() calls usb_control_msg() and checks its return
value. When the return value is unexpected, it only assigns the error
code to the return variable retval, but does not terminate the exception
path. This patch fixes the bug by inserting "goto exit;" when the call
to usb_control_msg() fails.
