usb: gadget: midi2: Fix null-pointer dereference in f_midi2_free_ep_reqs

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: gadget: midi2: Fix null-pointer dereference in f_midi2_free_ep_reqs A null-pointer dereference occurs in f_midi2_free_ep_reqs() when attempting to clean up an endpoint that was never initialized. When configuring the MIDI 2.0 gadget via configfs and setting the block direction to SNDRV_UMP_DIR_INPUT, the initialization of the midi1_ep_out endpoint is explicitly skipped during the gadget bind phase (f_midi2_bind()). As a result, the usb_ep->card field remains NULL. Later, when the host sets the alternate setting, f_midi2_set_alt() unconditionally stops both the IN and OUT endpoints by calling f_midi2_stop_eps(), which in turn calls f_midi2_free_ep_reqs() for both endpoints. When f_midi2_free_ep_reqs() is called for the uninitialized midi1_ep_out, it attempts to dereference usb_ep->card to determine the number of requests to free, leading to a crash. Fix this by using usb_ep->num_reqs instead of usb_ep->card->info.num_reqs in f_midi2_free_ep_reqs(). usb_ep->num_reqs is correctly set during f_midi2_init_ep() and remains 0 if the endpoint was never initialized, safely avoiding the loop. For consistency, apply the same change to f_midi2_alloc_ep_reqs().
