Subject: [PATCH 3.16 030/192] usb: usbip: set buffer pointers to NULL
 after free

3.16.49-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Michael Grzeschik <m.grzeschik@...gutronix.de>

commit b3b51417d0af63fb9a06662dc292200aed9ea53f upstream.

The usbip stack dynamically allocates the transfer_buffer and
setup_packet of each urb that got generated by the tcp to usb stub code.
As these pointers are always used only once we will set them to NULL
after use. This is done likewise to the free_urb code in vudc_dev.c.
This patch fixes double kfree situations where the usbip remote side
added the URB_FREE_BUFFER.
