The newer usb_control_msg_{send|recv}() API ensures that a short read
is treated as an error, data can be used off the stack, and raw usb
pipes need not be created in the calling functions.
For this reason, instances of usb_control_msg() have been replaced with
usb_control_msg_{recv|send}() appropriately.
Now, we also test for a short device descriptor (which USB core
should already have fetched if you get to probe this driver), but which
wasn't verified again here before.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
