Subject: [PATCH] USB: serial: visor: handle potential invalid device configuration

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.

Here is my long-forgotten patch for the visor driver to resolve an issue
that Andrey found back in September of 2017.  Sorry for the long delay.

Johan, I incorporated your review comments of my original one-off patch
here as well.
