Subject: char: xillybus: fix msg_ep UAF in xillyusb_probe()
When endpoint_alloc() return failed in xillyusb_setup_base_eps(),
'xdev->msg_ep' will be freed but not set to NULL. That lets program
enter fail handling to cleanup_dev() in xillyusb_probe(). Check for
'xdev->msg_ep' is invalid in cleanup_dev() because 'xdev->msg_ep' did
not set to NULL when was freed. So the UAF problem for 'xdev->msg_ep'
is triggered.
