[PATCH review for 3.18 13/30] USB: serial: mos7720: fix control-message error handling

From: Levin, Alexander (Sasha Levin)

[ Upstream commit 0d130367abf582e7cbf60075c2a7ab53817b1d14 ]

Make sure to log an error on short transfers when reading a device
register.

Also clear the provided buffer (which if often an uninitialised
automatic variable) on errors as the driver currently does not bother to
check for errors.
