Subject: [PATCH-next] usb: gadget: dereference before null check

From: Sebin Sebastian <mailmesebin00@...il.com>

Fix coverity warning dereferencing before null check. _ep and desc is
deferenced on all paths until the check for null. Move the
initilizations after the check for null.
Coverity issue: 1518209
