In commit:
8eb9ea1b354b SCardTransmit() may return SCARD_E_INSUFFICIENT_BUFFER
the recv buffer size, passed to the SCardTransmit() function, is set
unconditionally to "sizeof pbRecvBuffer", which is 64k + 12. This leads to
problems when the CT API is used in the lower layers, as the CT API implements
a maximum recv buffer size of 64k.
This leads to the truncation of the recv buffer size to 12. If the client has
supplied a buffer of >12 bytes, resulting in truncated reads. This patch tries
to work around the problem, by not unconditionally passing the recv buffer size
of "sizeof pbRecvBuffer" (64k + 12), but increasing the client supplied buffer
by one, keeping the "sizeof pbRecvBuffer" as an upper bound. This way a too
small recv buffer passed by the client can still be detected, but the CT API
limit of 64k is not exceeded if the buffer is below 64k.
