Subject: [ 61/69] xhci: Fix invalid loop check in xhci_free_tt_info()

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

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

From: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@...e.de>

commit 46ed8f00d8982e49f8fe2c1a9cea192f640cb3ba upstream.

xhci_free_tt_info() may access the invalid memory when it removes the
last entry but the list is not empty.  Then tt_next reaches to the
list head but it still tries to check the tt_info of that entry.

This patch fixes the bug and cleans up the messy code by rewriting
with a simple list_for_each_entry_safe().

This patch should be backported to kernels as old as 3.2, that contain
the commit 839c817ce67178ca3c7c7ad534c571bba1e69ebe "xhci: Store
information about roothubs and TTs."
