Subject: CVE-2024-42226: usb: xhci: prevent potential failure in handle_tx_event() for Transfer events without TRB

Description
===========

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

usb: xhci: prevent potential failure in handle_tx_event() for Transfer events without TRB

Some transfer events don't always point to a TRB, and consequently don't
have a endpoint ring. In these cases, function handle_tx_event() should
not proceed, because if 'ep->skip' is set, the pointer to the endpoint
ring is used.

To prevent a potential failure and make the code logical, return after
checking the completion code for a Transfer event without TRBs.

The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2024-42226 to this issue.

Mitigation
==========

The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest
stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes.  Individual
changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel
release.  Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or
supported by the Linux kernel community at all.  If however, updating to
the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this
issue can be found at these commits:
