Subject: [PATCH 4.9 12/83] isdn: mISDN: hfcsusb: Fix possible null-pointer dereferences in start_isoc_chain()

[ Upstream commit a0d57a552b836206ad7705a1060e6e1ce5a38203 ]

In start_isoc_chain(), usb_alloc_urb() on line 1392 may fail
and return NULL. At this time, fifo->iso[i].urb is assigned to NULL.

Then, fifo->iso[i].urb is used at some places, such as:
LINE 1405:    fill_isoc_urb(fifo->iso[i].urb, ...)
                  urb->number_of_packets = num_packets;
                  urb->transfer_flags = URB_ISO_ASAP;
                  urb->actual_length = 0;
                  urb->interval = interval;
LINE 1416:    fifo->iso[i].urb->...
LINE 1419:    fifo->iso[i].urb->...

Thus, possible null-pointer dereferences may occur.

To fix these bugs, "continue" is added to avoid using fifo->iso[i].urb
when it is NULL.

These bugs are found by a static analysis tool STCheck written by us.
