4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Johan Hovold <johan@kernel.org>

commit ebeb36670ecac36c179b5fb5d5c88ff03ba191ec upstream.

Make sure to check the number of endpoints to avoid dereferencing a
NULL-pointer or accessing memory beyond the endpoint array should a
malicious device lack the expected endpoints.

Fixes: 36bcce430657 ("ath9k_htc: Handle storage devices")
