This patch has been floating around since the beginning of July.

It fixes a real issue which was found by creating a virtual
(software based) malicious device and registering it as a HID device.

There is nothing preventing a real attacker from creating a H/W
version of the device in order to instigate an out-of-bounds read,
potentially leading to a data leak.

Would someone be kind enough to review please?
