[PATCH] usb/core: fix NULL pointer dereference inrecursively_mark_NOTATTACHED

From: Du, Changbin
Date: Wed Dec 18 2013 - 03:47:21 EST


usb_hub_to_struct_hub() can return NULL if the hub without active
configuration. So the result must be checked.

BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000015c
