Subject: [PATCH v4] PCI: endpoint: Fix NULL pointer dereference for
 ->get_features()

get_features ops of pci_epc_ops may return NULL, causing NULL pointer
dereference in pci_epf_test_bind function. Let us add a check for
pci_epc_feature pointer in pci_epf_test_bind before we access it to avoid
any such NULL pointer dereference and return -ENOTSUPP in case
pci_epc_feature is not found.

When the patch is not applied and EPC features is not implemented in the
platform driver, we see the following dump due to kernel NULL pointer
dereference.
