[alsa-devel] [PATCH 2/9] ALSA: bcd2000: Add a sanity check for invalid EPs

As syzkaller spotted, currently bcd2000 driver submits a URB with the
fixed EP without checking whether it's actually available, which may
result in a kernel warning like:
  usb 1-1: BOGUS urb xfer, pipe 1 != type 3
  ------------[ cut here ]------------
  WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 1846 at drivers/usb/core/urb.c:449

This patch adds a sanity check of validity of EPs at the device
initialization phase for avoiding the call with an invalid EP.
