r8152: Set memory to all 0xFFs on failed reg reads [ Upstream commit f53a7ad189594a112167efaf17ea8d0242b5ac00 ] get_registers() blindly copies the memory written to by the usb_control_msg() call even if the underlying urb failed. This could lead to junk register values being read by the driver, since some indirect callers of get_registers() ignore the return values. One example is: ocp_read_dword() ignores the return value of generic_ocp_read(), which calls get_registers(). So, emulate PCI "Master Abort" behavior by setting the buffer to all 0xFFs when usb_control_msg() fails. This patch is copied from the r8152 driver (v2.12.0) published by Realtek (www.realtek.com).
