usb: gadget: fix NULL pointer dereference
Fix possible NULL pointer dereference introduced in commit 219580e (usb: f_fs: check quirk to pad epout buf size when not aligned to maxpacketsize) In cases we do wait with: wait_event_interruptible(epfile->wait, (ep = epfile->ep)); for endpoint to be enabled, functionfs_bind() has not been called yet and epfile->ffs->gadget is still NULL and the automatic variable 'gadget' has been initialized with NULL at the point of its definition. Later on it is used as a parameter to: usb_ep_align_maybe(gadget, ep->ep, len) which in turn dereferences it. This patch fixes it by moving the actual assignment to the local 'gadget' variable after the potential waiting has completed.
