[alsa-devel] [PATCH] ALSA: usb-audio: Fix NULL dereference at parsing BADD

snd_usb_mixer_controls_badd() that parses UAC3 BADD profiles misses a
NULL check for the given interfaces.  When a malformed USB descriptor
is passed, this may lead to an Oops, as spotted by syzkaller.
Skip the iteration if the interface doesn't exist for avoiding the
crash.

Fixes: 17156f23e93c ("ALSA: usb: add UAC3 BADD profiles support")
