USB: usblcd doesn't limit memory consumption during write

usblcd currently has no way to limit memory consumption by fast writers.
This is a security problem, as it allows users with write access to this
device to drive the system into oom despite resource limits.
Here's the fix taken from the modern skeleton driver.
