[PATCH 1/1] usb: gadget: Don't attempt to dequeue requests for a disabled USB endpoint on Freescale hardware

Some gadget drivers may attempt to dequeue requests for an endpoint that has
already been disabled. For example, in the UVC gadget driver, uvc_function_set_alt()
will call usb_ep_disable() when alt setting 0 is selected. When the userspace
application subsequently issues the VIDIOC_STREAMOFF ioctl, uvc_video_enable()
invokes usb_ep_dequeue() to ensure that all requests have been cancelled.

For the Freescale High Speed Dual-Role USB controller, fsl_ep_dequeue() provides
the implementation of usb_ep_dequeue(). If this is called for a disabled endpoint,
a kernel oops will occur when the ep->ep.desc field is dereferenced (by ep_index()).
fsl_ep_disable() sets this field to NULL, as well as deleting all pending requests
for the endpoint.

This patch adds an additional check to fsl_ep_dequeue() to ensure that the
endpoint has not already been disabled before attempting to dequeue requests.
