Subject: HID: i2c-hid: allocate hid buffers for real worst case

From: Adrian Salido <[email protected]>

commit 8320caeeffdefec3b58b9d4a7ed8e1079492fe7b upstream.

The buffer allocation is not currently accounting for an extra byte for the report id. This can cause an out of bounds access in function i2c_hid_set_or_send_report() with reportID > 15.
