Subject: [PATCH 3.12 090/142] uwb: hwa-rc: fix NULL-deref at probe

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

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

===============

commit daf229b15907fbfdb6ee183aac8ca428cb57e361 upstream.

Make sure to check the number of endpoints to avoid dereferencing a
NULL-pointer should a malicious device lack endpoints.

Note that the dereference happens in the start callback which is called
during probe.

Fixes: de520b8bd552 ("uwb: add HWA radio controller driver")
