Staging: quatech_usb2: write_room rewrite
The following patch re-writes the write_room method to work in the obvious sort of way, so it keeps it's promises to the layers above. Based on feedback from Alan Cox. Signed-off-by: Richard Ash <richard@audacityteam.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
