patch "usb: gadgetfs: restrict upper bound on device configuration size" added to usb-linus

This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled

usb: gadgetfs: restrict upper bound on device configuration size

to my usb git tree which can be found at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/usb.git
in the usb-linus branch.

The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree (usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.)

The patch will hopefully also be merged in Linus's tree for the next -rc kernel release.

If you have any questions about this process, please let me know.

Subject: usb: gadgetfs: restrict upper bound on device configuration size

Andrey Konovalov reported that we were not properly checking the upper limit before of a device configuration size before calling memdup_user(), which could cause some problems.

So set the upper limit to PAGE_SIZE * 4, which should be good enough for all devices.
