Subject: [PATCH 4.9 03/16] Revert "USB: serial: ch341: fix character loss at high transfer rates"

From: Johan Hovold <johan@...nel.org>

commit df7b16d1c00ecb3da3a30c999cdb39f273c99a2f upstream.

This reverts commit 3c18e9baee0ef97510dcda78c82285f52626764b.

These devices do not appear to send a zero-length packet when the
transfer size is a multiple of the bulk-endpoint max-packet size. This
means that incoming data may not be processed by the driver until a
short packet is received or the receive buffer is full.

Revert back to using endpoint-sized receive buffers to avoid stalled
reads.
