[PATCH AUTOSEL 4.9 27/57] usb: wusbcore: security: cast sizeof to int for comparison

From: Julia Lawall <Julia.Lawall@xxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit d3ac5598c5010a8999978ebbcca3b1c6188ca36b ]

Comparing an int to a size, which is unsigned, causes the int to become
unsigned, giving the wrong result. usb_get_descriptor can return a
negative error code.

A simplified version of the semantic match that finds this problem is as
follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)

// <smpl>
@@
int x;
expression e,e1;
identifier f;
@@

*x = f(...);
... when != x = e1
when != if (x < 0 || ...) { ... return ...; }
*x < sizeof(e)
// </smpl>
