USB: usbtmc: sanity checks for DEV_DEP_MSG_IN urbs
According to the specifications, an instrument should not return more data in a DEV_DEP_MSG_IN urb than requested. However, some instruments can send more than requested. This could cause the kernel to write the extra data past the end of the buffer provided by read(). Fix this by checking that the value of the TranserSize field is not larger than the urb itself and not larger than the size of the userspace buffer. Also correctly decrement the remaining size of the buffer when userspace read()s more than USBTMC_SIZE_IOBUFFER.
