Stephen Ware 84dcd59495 USB: fix up problems in the vtusb driver
Add range check on buffer sizes passed in from user space
(max is 8*PAGE_SIZE) which will work for the most common
spectrometers even at pages as small as 1K.

Add kref to vst device structure to preserve reference to the
usb object until we truly are done with it.

Stephen Ware cbc30118d7 usb: vstusb.c : new driver for spectrometers used by Vernier Software & Technology, Inc.
This patch adds the vstusb driver to the drivers/usb/misc directory.
This driver provides support for Vernier Software & Technology
spectrometers, all made by Ocean Optics. The driver provides both IOCTL
and read()/write() methods for sending raw data to spectrometers across
the bulk channel. Each method allows for a configured timeout.
