[PATCH] usb: gadget: uvc: check endpoint enabled state in uvcg_video_enable()

[syzbot]

From: Aleksandr Nogikh <nog...@google.com>

A NULL pointer dereference can occur in uvc_video_prep_requests() if
userspace issues a VIDIOC_STREAMON ioctl before the USB host has fully
configured the streaming endpoint.

When userspace calls VIDIOC_STREAMON, the driver handles it in
uvc_v4l2_streamon(), which in turn calls uvcg_video_enable(). Currently,
uvcg_video_enable() only checks if the endpoint pointer is allocated
(video->ep == NULL), but it fails to check if the endpoint is actually
enabled (video->ep->enabled).

The endpoint descriptor (video->ep->desc) is only assigned when the USB
host explicitly selects the streaming alternate setting via a SET_INTERFACE
control request. If userspace prematurely calls VIDIOC_STREAMON before the
host has selected the streaming alternate setting, video->ep->desc will
still be NULL.

Because uvcg_video_enable() does not verify the endpoint's enabled state,
it proceeds to call uvc_video_alloc_requests() and then
uvc_video_prep_requests(). Inside uvc_video_prep_requests(), the code
unconditionally dereferences video->ep->desc, resulting in a KASAN
null-ptr-deref / general protection fault:

Oops: general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address

To fix this, update uvcg_video_enable() to also verify that the endpoint is
enabled (!video->ep->enabled). This ensures that if userspace prematurely
calls VIDIOC_STREAMON, the driver will safely reject the request with
-ENODEV instead of crashing the kernel.
