Subject: [PATCH 3.2 19/95] uwb: i1480-dfu: fix NULL-deref at probe

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

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

From: Johan Hovold <johan@...nel.org>

commit 4ce362711d78a4999011add3115b8f4b0bc25e8c upstream.

Make sure to check the number of endpoints to avoid dereferencing a
NULL-pointer should a malicious device lack endpoints.

Note that the dereference happens in the cmd and wait_init_done
callbacks which are called during probe.
