PATCH 1/1 segfault due to buffer overrun in usb-serial

This fixes a segfault due to buffer overrun in the usb-serial device. The memcpy was incrementing the start location by recv_used yet, the computation of first_size (how much to write at the end of the buffer before wrapping to the front) was not accounting for it. This causes the next element after the receive buffer (recv_ptr) to get overwritten with random data.

I have not seen response to this. If there are no objections please apply.

Thanks,
