4.16-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Bin Liu <b-liu@xxxxxx> commit 2b63f1329df2cd814c1f8353fae4853ace6521d1 upstream. musb_start_urb() doesn't check the pass-in parameter if it is NULL. But in musb_bulk_nak_timeout() the parameter passed to musb_start_urb() is returned from first_qh(), which could be NULL. So wrap the musb_start_urb() call here with a if condition check to avoid the potential NULL pointer dereference.
