USB: yurex: Fix buffer over-read in yurex_write()
If the written data starts with a digit, yurex_write() tries to parse
it as an integer using simple_strtoull(). This requires a null-
terminator, and currently there's no guarantee that there is one.
(The sample program at
https://github.com/NeoCat/YUREX-driver-for-Linux/blob/master/sample/yurex_clock.pl
writes an integer without a null terminator. It seems like it must
have worked by chance!)
Always add a null byte after the written data. Enlarge the buffer
to allow for this.
