media: em28xx: Fix use-after-free in em28xx_alloc_urbs
[ Upstream commit a26efd1961a18b91ae4cd2e433adbcf865b40fa3 ]
When kzalloc() fails, em28xx_uninit_usb_xfer() will free
usb_bufs->buf and set it to NULL. Thus the later access
to usb_bufs->buf[i] will lead to null pointer dereference.
Also the kfree(usb_bufs->buf) after that is redundant.
