Subject: usb: renesas_usbhs: avoid NULL pointer derefernce in
usbhsf_pkt_handler()
commit 894f2fc44f2f3f48c36c973b1123f6ab298be160 upstream.
When unexpected situation happened (e.g. tx/rx irq happened while
DMAC is used), the usbhsf_pkt_handler() was possible to cause NULL
pointer dereference like the followings:
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000
pgd = c0004000
[00000000] *pgd=00000000

This patch adds a condition to avoid the dereference.
