Subject: [PATCH v2] usb/cdc-wdm: fix memory info leak in wdm_read

syzbot reported "KMSAN: kernel-infoleak in wdm_read", though there is no
reproducer and the only report for this issue. This might be
a false-positive, but while the reading the code, it seems,
there is the way to leak kernel memory.

Here what I understand so far from the report happening
with ubuf in drivers/usb/class/cdc-wdm.c:

1. kernel buffer "ubuf" is allocated during cdc-wdm device creation in
   the "struct wdm_device":

        static int wdm_create()
        {
           ...
           desc->ubuf = kmalloc(desc->wMaxCommand, GFP_KERNEL);
           ...
           usb_fill_control_urb(
              ...
              wdm_in_callback,
              ...
           );

        }

2. during wdm_create() it calls wdm_in_callback() which MAY fill "ubuf"
   for the first time via memmove if conditions are met.

        static void wdm_in_callback()
        {
           ...
           if (length + desc->length > desc->wMaxCommand) {
             ...
        } else {
           /* we may already be in overflow */
           if (!test_bit(WDM_OVERFLOW, &desc->flags)) {
              memmove(desc->ubuf + desc->length, desc->inbuf, length);
              desc->length += length;
              desc->reslength = length;
           }
        }
           ...
        }

3. if conditions are not fulfilled in step 2., then calling read() syscall
   which calls wdm_read(), should leak the random kernel memory via
   copy_to_user() from "ubuf" buffer which is allocated in kmalloc-256.

        static ssize_t wdm_read()
        {
            ...
            struct wdm_device *desc = file->private_data;
            cntr = READ_ONCE(desc->length);
            ...
            if (cntr > count)
                cntr = count;
            rv = copy_to_user(buffer, desc->ubuf, cntr);
           ...
        }

        , where wMaxCommand is 256, AFAIU.
