#1688359 — [PATCH 3.16 041/178] USB: wusbcore: fix NULL-deref at probe

3.16.46-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Johan Hovold <johan@kernel.org>

commit 03ace948a4eb89d1cf51c06afdfc41ebca5fdb27 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.

This specifically fixes the NULL-pointer dereference when probing HWA HC
devices.
