s3c-hsudc: Fix possible nullpointer dereference during probe

A patch from »s3c-hsudc improvements« in state Mainline for linux-kernel

From: Heiko Stuebner <heiko@...> Date: Sun, 21 Aug 2011 12:27:16 +0200

Commit-Message

The usb-interrupt is requested before the endpoints are initalised. If an interrupt happens in the time between request_irq and the init of the endpoint-data (as seen on the Qisda ESx00 ebook-platforms), it is therefore possible for the interrupt handler to access endpoint- data before its creation resulting in a null-pointer dereference. This patch simply moves the irq request below the endpoint init. Signed-off-by: Heiko Stuebner <heiko@...>
