Subject: Re: KMSAN: uninit-value in alauda_check_media

Hi,

(2nd try - text only format - sorry for the noise)

first try to use syzbot. I hope I do it right.
Discussion about the syz report can be found at 
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-kernel/0000000000007d25ff059457342d@google.com/

This patch only test if alauda_get_media_status() (and its embedded 
usb_stor_ctrl_transfer()) before using the data.
In case of error, it returns USB_STOR_TRANSPORT_ERROR as done elsewhere.

#syz test: 
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/next/linux-next.git master
