Subject: [PATCH] usb: dwc2: fix possible NULL pointer dereference caused by driver concurrency

In _dwc2_hcd_urb_enqueue(), "urb->hcpriv = NULL" is executed without 
holding the lock "hsotg->lock". In _dwc2_hcd_urb_dequeue():

    spin_lock_irqsave(&hsotg->lock, flags);
    ...
	if (!urb->hcpriv) {
		dev_dbg(hsotg->dev, "## urb->hcpriv is NULL ##\n");
		goto out;
	}
    rc = dwc2_hcd_urb_dequeue(hsotg, urb->hcpriv); // Use urb->hcpriv
    ...
out:
    spin_unlock_irqrestore(&hsotg->lock, flags);

When _dwc2_hcd_urb_enqueue() and _dwc2_hcd_urb_dequeue() are 
concurrently executed, the NULL check of "urb->hcpriv" can be executed
before "urb->hcpriv = NULL". After urb->hcpriv is NULL, it can be used 
in the function call to dwc2_hcd_urb_dequeue(), which can cause a NULL 
pointer dereference. 

To fix this possible bug, "urb->hcpriv = NULL" should be executed with
holding the lock "hsotg->lock".
