Commit ee0d382feb44 is for aspeed_udc, but not renesas_usb3.
Also, if citing commit, it is better using format: commit <sha> ("<title>"),
do you run chechpatch.pl before submitting?

Besides, where the user could find what is CVE-2026-31615?

Good caught. And it also needs to add one more condition for !priv_dev->eps[index] since
it may be NULL if endpoints are not enabled at usb_caps, see cdns3_init_eps() for detail.
