[PATCH 3.16 126/136] usbip: fix stub_send_ret_submit() vulnerability to null transfer_buffer

[Ben Hutchings]

3.16.54-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Shuah Khan <shuahkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit be6123df1ea8f01ee2f896a16c2b7be3e4557a5a upstream.

stub_send_ret_submit() handles urb with a potential null transfer_buffer,
when it replays a packet with potential malicious data that could contain
a null buffer. Add a check for the condition when actual_length > 0 and
transfer_buffer is null.
