smatch generated this warning: drivers/media/usb/b2c2/flexcop-usb.c:199 flexcop_usb_memory_req() warn: iterator 'i' not incremented and indeed the function is not using i or updating buf. The reason this always worked is that this function is called to write just 6 bytes (a MAC address) to the USB device, and so in practice there is only a single chunk written. If we ever would need to write more than one chunk, this function would fail since each chunk would read from or write to the same buf address. Rewrite the function to properly handle this.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
