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.
