Subject: [media] mceusb: fix NULL-deref at probe
From: Johan Hovold <johan@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit 03eb2a557ed552e920a0942b774aaf931596eec1 upstream.
Make sure to check for the required out endpoint to avoid dereferencing
a NULL-pointer in mce_request_packet should a malicious device lack such
an endpoint. Note that this path is hit during probe.
