3.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

commit e84f44eb5523401faeb9cc1c97895b68e3cfb78d upstream.
The conditon in the while-loop becomes true when actual_length is less than 2 (MSG_HEADER_LEN). In best case we end up with a former, already dispatched msg, that got msg->len greater than actual_length. This will result in a "Format error" error printout.
Problem seen when unplugging a Kvaser USB device connected to a vbox guest.
