Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 5.12 057/104] USB: core: Avoid WARNings for 0-length descriptor requests

From: Alan Stern <stern@...land.harvard.edu>

[ Upstream commit 60dfe484cef45293e631b3a6e8995f1689818172 ]

The USB core has utility routines to retrieve various types of
descriptors.  These routines will now provoke a WARN if they are asked
to retrieve 0 bytes (USB "receive" requests must not have zero
length), so avert this by checking the size argument at the start.
