[PATCH 5/6] uwb: hwa-rc: fix NULL-deref at probe

From: Johan Hovold
Date: Mon Mar 13 2017 - 08:50:07 EST


Make sure to check the number of endpoints to avoid dereferencing a
NULL-pointer should a malicious device lack endpoints.

Note that the dereference happens in the start callback which is called
during probe.
