Subject: [PATCH 3.2 078/199] USB: serial: mos7840: fix NULL-deref at open

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

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

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

commit 5c75633ef751dd4cd8f443dc35152c1ae563162e upstream.

Fix NULL-pointer dereference in open() should the device lack the
expected endpoints:

Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000030
...
PC is at mos7840_open+0x88/0x8dc [mos7840]

Note that we continue to treat the interrupt-in endpoint as optional for
now.

[bwh: Backported to 3.2: add this check to the existing
 usb_serial_driver::attach implementation]
