USB: serial: sierra driver write path improvements
- Updated Copyright notice with new authors names
- Version number set to 1.3.6
- Added a MAX_TRANSFER constant following Greg Kroah-Hartman's
recommended setting of PAGE_SIZE-512 for USB transfer buffers and
modified accordingly sierra_write() function.
