Why do claim it will crash?

Note that the "fix" for this CVE that you're now copying was incomplete.
Here's the proper fix:

	b7321e81fc36 ("USB: iowarrior: fix NULL-deref at probe")

Besides that you didn't even bother compile-testing this, there is no
bug here to fix to begin with.

If bNumEndpoints is zero this loop will execute and the driver bails out
just after since dev->read_endpoint is NULL.

Same here.
