From: Jianglei Nie <niejianglei2021@xxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 271add11994ba1a334859069367e04d2be2ebdd4 ] fc_exch_release(ep) will decrease the ep's reference count. When the reference count reaches zero, it is freed. But ep is still used in the following code, which will lead to a use after free. Return after the fc_exch_release() call to avoid use after free.
