The return value of cdnsp_get_transfer_ring()
needs to be checked to avoid use of NULL pointer
in case of an acquisition failure.

Fixes: 3d8290455 ("usb: cdnsp: cdns3 Add main part of Cadence USBSSP DRD Driver")

Please do not put a blank line between "Fixes:" and your signed off by
line.

How did you test this?

Don't you need to properly clean up and handle the hardware issues if
you exit early here?

Without good testing, I am loath to take this.

thanks,

I find this by a static analyzer based on frequency and similarity, which report many null ptr deref bugs.
In cdns3/cdnsp-ring.c, I find that we usually check the return value when call function 'usb_get_intfdata'.
If 'deq_state->stream_id' is special, the 'ep_ring' is also null. Therefore, i think we should add null checks here.
I will resubmit a new patch if you think the bug is real.
Thanks for your reply and advice.
