Subject: [PATCH 3.16 050/254] ALSA: usb-audio: Add check return value for
 usb_string()

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

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

From: Jaejoong Kim <climbbb.kim@...il.com>

commit 89b89d121ffcf8d9546633b98ded9d18b8f75891 upstream.

snd_usb_copy_string_desc() returns zero if usb_string() fails.
In case of failure, we need to check the snd_usb_copy_string_desc()'s
return value and add an exception case
