The USB3 HCD structure (xhci->shared_hcd) may be NULL when the USB3 interrupt occurs, the typical use case is we plug out Type-C-to-A cable, and there is a USB device at the port. The platform controller driver (eg, dwc3) unregisters xhci platform driver, and remove hcd accordingly. It is very easy to reproduce if there is a USB3 HUB on the port, and there is no USB3 device on HUB's port, the controller is at U3, it performs a far-end receiver termination detection every 100 ms, so the USB3 port change interrupt may be occurs 100ms maximum later when we plug out Type-C-to-A cable, and the USB3 HCD has already been NULL at that time.
