Subject: zd1211rw: fix NULL-deref at probe

From: Johan Hovold <johan@xxxxxxxxxx>


[ Upstream commit ca260ece6a57dc7d751e0685f51fa2c55d851873 ]

Make sure to check the number of endpoints to avoid dereferencing a
NULL-pointer or accessing memory beyond the endpoint array should a
malicious device lack the expected endpoints.
