When the host controller is not responding, all URBs queued to all
endpoints need to be killed. This can cause a kernel panic if we
dereference an invalid endpoint.

Fix this by using xhci_get_virt_ep() helper to find the endpoint and
checking if the endpoint is valid before dereferencing it.

This is a good generic change that should be added anyway, but but might not fix
the rootcause. It will reduce the risk of the race drastically.

We do check that xhci-devs[slot_id] exists once before calling xhci_kill_endpoint_urbs()
for the endpoints of that virt_dev in xhci_hc_died().
And xhci_hc_died() should always be calling with lock held (need to doublecheck this is true).

Older kernels used release and re-aquire the lock while giving back urbs for an endpoint,
so older kernels really need this change.

But newer kernels don't release the lock anymore when giving back URBs.

Looks like real issue is that we don't take the lock when we free the virt_dev.
