Subject: [PATCH 3.16 039/178] USB: idmouse: fix NULL-deref at probe

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

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

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

commit b0addd3fa6bcd119be9428996d5d4522479ab240 upstream.

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