[PATCH v1 1/1] USB: serial: Add boundry check for read_urbs array access

From: Kuppuswamy Sathyanarayanan <sathyanarayanan.kuppuswamy@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

In usb_serial_generic_submit_read_urb() function we are accessing the
port->read_urbs array without any boundry checks. This might lead to
kernel panic when index value goes above array length.

One posible call path for this issue is,

usb_serial_generic_read_bulk_callback()
{
...
if (!port->throttled) {
usb_serial_generic_submit_read_urb(port, i, GFP_ATOMIC);
...
}

This patch fixes this issue.
