USB HID: fix a possible NULL pointer dereference when we fail to allocate memory
If, in usb_hid_configure(), we fail to allocate storage for 'usbhid',
"if (!(usbhid = kzalloc(sizeof(struct usbhid_device), GFP_KERNEL)))",
then we'll jump to the 'fail:' label where we have this code:
usb_free_urb(usbhid->urbin);
usb_free_urb(usbhid->urbout);
usb_free_urb(usbhid->urbctrl);
Since we got here because we couldn't allocate storage for 'usbhid',
what we have here is a NULL pointer dereference - ouch...
This patch solves that little problem by adding a new
'fail_no_usbhid:' label after the problematic calls to
usb_free_urb() and jumps to that one instead, in the problem case.
