As it turned out this dereference is only an issue if kcalloc_node() failed, not if rhub->num_ports is zero. So this is more of a theoretical issue. Not urgent, not for stable. So as Greg suggested its probably better to add this fix on top of the one roothub support series it conflicts with. Thanks Mathias
