Subject: [PATCH] usb: gadget: f_fs: Fix NULL pointer dereference in ffs_epfile_async_io_complete()

In scenarios of continuous and parallel usage of multiple FFS interfaces
and concurrent adb operations (e.g., adb root, adb reboot), there's a
chance that ffs_epfile_async_io_complete() might be processed after
ffs_epfile_release(). This could lead to a NULL pointer dereference of
ffs when accessing the ffs pointer in ffs_epfile_async_io_complete(), as
ffs is freed as part of ffs_epfile_release(). This epfile release is
part of file operation and is triggered when user space daemons restart
themselves or a reboot is initiated.

Fix this issue by adding a NULL pointer check for ffs in
ffs_epfile_async_io_complete().
