Subject: [PATCH 3.16 061/178] Input: kbtab - validate number of endpoints
 before using them

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

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

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

commit cb1b494663e037253337623bf1ef2df727883cb7 upstream.

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