USB: whiteheat: Added bounds checking for bulk command response
This patch fixes a potential security issue in the whiteheat USB driver which might allow a local attacker to cause kernel memory corrpution. This is due to an unchecked memcpy into a fixed size buffer (of 64 bytes). On EHCI and XHCI busses it's possible to craft responses greater than 64 bytes leading a buffer overflow.
