Subject: [PATCH 3.16 022/305] libertas_tf: prevent underflow in
 process_cmdrequest()

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

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

From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@...cle.com>

commit 3348ef6a6a126706d6a73ed40c18d8033df72783 upstream.

If recvlength is less than MESSAGE_HEADER_LEN (4) we would end up
corrupting memory.

Fixes: c305a19a0d0a ("libertas_tf: usb specific functions")
