[alsa-devel] [PATCH v4 03/15] ALSA: usb-audio: prevent NULL dereference on stop trigger

If an endpoint uses another endpoint for synchronization, and the
other endpoint is stopped, an oops will occur on NULL dereference.
Clearing the prepare/retire callbacks solves this issue.

v2: Thanks to Daniel Mack, fixed (an ironic) NULL dereference when
the pcm substream is opened and closed immediately.
