[alsa-devel] [PATCH 1/2] ALSA: usb-audio: Avoid access before bLength check in build_audio_procunit()

The parser for the processing unit reads bNrInPins field before the
bLength sanity check, which may lead to an out-of-bound access when a
malformed descriptor is given.  Fix it by assignment after the bLength
check.
