Subject: [ 072/108] USB: CDC ACM: Fix NULL pointer dereference

From: Greg KH <gregkh@...uxfoundation.org>

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

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

From: Sven Schnelle <svens@...ckframe.org>

commit 99f347caa4568cb803862730b3b1f1942639523f upstream.

If a device specifies zero endpoints in its interface descriptor,
the kernel oopses in acm_probe(). Even though that's clearly an
invalid descriptor, we should test wether we have all endpoints.
This is especially bad as this oops can be triggered by just
plugging a USB device in.
