Subject: [PATCH 3.16 151/370] usb: host: xhci: Fix possible wild pointer
 when handling abort command

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

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

From: Baolin Wang <baolin.wang@...aro.org>

commit 2a7cfdf37b7c08ac29df4c62ea5ccb01474b6597 upstream.

When current command was supposed to be aborted, host will free the command
in handle_cmd_completion() function. But it might be still referenced by
xhci->current_cmd, which need to set NULL.
