Make sure that the bulk-out buffers are at least as large as the
hardcoded transfer size to avoid user-controlled slab corruption should
a malicious device report a smaller endpoint max packet size than
expected.

These drivers (and usb-serial.c) no longer use anything from uaccess.h
directly so drop the unnecessary include directives.

<title>Convert 'alloc_obj' family to use the new default GFP_KERNEL argument</title>

<id>urn:sha1:bf4afc53b77aeaa48b5409da5c8da6bb4eff7f43</id>
<content type='text'>
This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using

    git grep -l '\&lt;k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' |
        xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/'

to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.

Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.

For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate
conversion.

<title>treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for non-scalar types</title>

<content type='text'>
This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to
avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object instances:

Single allocations:	kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...)

Array allocations:	kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...)

Flex array allocations:	kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)

(where TYPE may also be *VAR)

The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning
"TYPE *".

Core in usb_serial_register_drivers() already sets the .owner, so driver
does not need to.

Add device id for Zyxel Omni 56K Plus modem, this modem include:

USB chip:
NetChip
NET2888

Main chip:

Another modem using the same chips is the Zyxel Omni 56K DUO/NEO,
could be added with the right USB ID.

All usb_serial drivers return 0 in their remove callbacks and driver
core ignores the value returned by usb_serial_device_remove(). So change
the remove callback to return void and return 0 unconditionally in
usb_serial_device_remove().
