3.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman gregkh@linuxfoundation.org
commit 4842ed5bfcb9daf6660537d70503c18d38dbdbb8 upstream.
If we get an invalid device configuration from a palm 3 type device, we might incorrectly parse things, and we have the potential to crash in "interesting" ways.
Fix this up by verifying the size of the configuration passed to us by the device, and only if it is correct, will we handle it.
Note that this also fixes an information leak of slab data.
