Subject: [PATCH 3.18 12/59] ath9k_htc: fix NULL-deref at probe

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

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

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

commit ebeb36670ecac36c179b5fb5d5c88ff03ba191ec upstream.

Make sure to check the number of endpoints to avoid dereferencing a
NULL-pointer or accessing memory beyond the endpoint array should a
malicious device lack the expected endpoints.
