+Origin: https://git.kernel.org/linus/b348d7dddb6c4fbfc810b7a0626e8ec9e29f7cbb

+Fix potential out-of-bounds write to urb->transfer_buffer
+usbip handles network communication directly in the kernel. When receiving a
+packet from its peer, usbip code parses headers according to protocol. As
+part of this parsing urb->actual_length is filled. Since the input for
+urb->actual_length comes from the network, it should be treated as untrusted.
+Any entity controlling the network may put any value in the input and the
+preallocated urb->transfer_buffer may not be large enough to hold the data.
+Thus, the malicious entity is able to write arbitrary data to kernel memory.
