Subject: [PATCH] usb: host: xhci: Add a NULL check of hcd in xhci_plat_remove()

In a previous commit d7de14d74d65 ("usb: xhci_plat_remove: avoid NULL
dereference"), hcd can be NULL in usb_remove_hcd(), and thus it should
be checked before being used.

However, in the call stack of this commit, hci is also used to get xhci:

xhci_plat_remove()
  xhci = hcd_to_xhci(hcd)
    usb_hcd_is_primary_hcd(hcd)
      if (!hcd->primary_hcd) -> No check for hcd
    primary_hcd = hcd->primary_hcd; -> No check for hcd
  usb_remove_hcd(hcd)
    if (!hcd) -> Add a check by the previous commit

Thus, to avoid possible null-pointer dereferences, hci should be checked
before hcd_to_xhci() is called.

These bugs are reported by a static analysis tool implemented by myself,
and they are found by extending a known bug fixed in the previous commit.
Thus, they could be theoretical bugs.
