[PATCH] USB: cdc-acm: Prevent data loss when filling tty buffer.

[Toby Gray]

When sending large quantities of data through a CDC ACM channel it is possible
for data to be lost when attempting to copy the data to the tty buffer. This
occurs due to the return value from tty_insert_flip_string not being checked.

This patch adds checking for how many bytes have been inserted into the tty
buffer and returns any remaining bytes back to the filled read buffer list.
