Subject[PATCH v2] usb: Use memdup_user to reuse the code
Message-ID<qDpz4-2iu-21@gated-at.bofh.it>
From: Rahul Pathak <rpathak@visteon.com>

Fixing coccicheck warning which recommends to use memdup_user instead
to reimplement its code, using memdup_user simplifies the code

./drivers/usb/core/devio.c:1398:11-18: WARNING opportunity for memdup_user

Changes after v1: setting isopkt=NULL for proper kfree() call

This line belongs below the "---" tear line, so that it doesn't show up 
in the final commit changelog.  People reading the final commit won't 
care about earlier versions of the patch.

Hello Greg,

I have already resent the patch yesterday in new mail.

 -- Sending this mail again because previous mail was blocked as spam.
