Subject: USB: serial: io_edgeport: fix epic-descriptor handling

From: Johan Hovold <johan@kernel.org>

commit e4457d9798adb96272468e93da663de9bd0a4198 upstream.

Use a dedicated buffer for the DMA transfer and make sure to detect
short transfers to avoid parsing a corrupt descriptor.

Fixes: 6e8cf7751f9f ("USB: add EPIC support to the io_edgeport driver")
