I didn't have time to look into this myself last week, or comment on the
patch before Greg picked it up, but this clearly isn't the right fix.

As your comment suggests, ep->hcpriv may indeed be NULL here if USB core
have allocated a new udev. But this only happens after USB has freed the
old usb_device and the new one happens to get the same address.

Note that even the usb_host_endpoint itself (ep) has then been freed and
reallocated since it is member of struct usb_device, and it is the
use-after-free that needs fixing.

I've even been able to trigger another NULL-deref in this function
before a new udev has been allocated, due to the virt dev having been
freed by xhci_free_dev as part of usb_release_dev:

[   19.627771] usb 2-2.4: unable to read config index 0 descriptor/start: -32

[   19.629017] usb 2-2.4: usb_release_dev - udev = ffff930b14d82000

udev is freed here

[   19.629461] xhci_clear_tt_buffer_complete - udev = ffff930b14d82000

use-after-free when tt work is scheduled (note than udev is non-NULL
since udev hasn't been reallocated and initialised yet):

[   19.629643] xhci_clear_tt_buffer_complete - xhci->devs[4] = 0000000000000000

virt dev is NULL after having been freed by xhci_free_dev()

and is later dereferenced

It seems the xhci clear-tt implementation was incomplete since it did
not take care to wait for any ongoing work before disabling the
endpoint. EHCI does this in ehci_endpoint_disable(), but xhci doesn't
even implement that callback.

As this may be something you could end up hitting in other paths as
well, perhaps we should even consider reverting the offending commit
pending a more complete implementation?
