USB: serial drivers need to use larger bulk-in buffers
commit 969e3033ae7733a0af8f7742ca74cd16c0857e71 upstream. When a driver doesn't know how much data a device is going to send, the buffer size should be at least as big as the endpoint's maxpacket value. The serial drivers don't follow this rule; many of them request only 256-byte bulk-in buffers. As a result, they suffer overflow errors if a high-speed device wants to send a lot of data, because high-speed bulk endpoints are required to have a maxpacket size of 512. This patch (as1450) fixes the problem by using the driver's bulk_in_size value as a minimum, always allocating buffers no smaller than the endpoint's maxpacket size.
