Thanks for taking a look, Chris.

This function is called for both the WWAN and WLAN on this machine, and
it seems like the modem is typically probed first and around the time
when I saw the NULL-deref.

I didn't look closely at the code, but I can confirm that the offset of
buf_info->used is indeed 0x34, which could indicate that it's the

	buf_info = buf_ring->wp;

pointer that was NULL.

Would that patch still help?

I naively tried adding a sleep after registering the endpoint, but that
is at least not sufficient to trigger the NULL-deref.
