Subject: HID: lenovo-tpkbd: validate output report details

commit 0a9cd0a80ac559357c6a90d26c55270ed752aa26 upstream.

A HID device could send a malicious output report that would cause the
lenovo-tpkbd HID driver to write just beyond the output report allocation
during initialization, causing a heap overflow:

[   76.109807] usb 1-1: New USB device found, idVendor=17ef, idProduct=6009
...
[   80.462540] BUG kmalloc-192 (Tainted: G        W   ): Redzone overwritten

CVE-2013-2894
