Subject: Input: aiptek - fix crash on detecting device without endpoints

commit 8e20cf2bce122ce9262d6034ee5d5b76fbb92f96 upstream.

The aiptek driver crashes in aiptek_probe() when a specially crafted USB
device without endpoints is detected. This fix adds a check that the device
has proper configuration expected by the driver. Also an error return value
is changed to more matching one in one of the error paths.
