Thanks, Baranee

I double checked code flow. 

When there is transaction error, the Urb->EvtTrb would not be updated and is 
NULL (see line 1165 of last revision in EDKII trunk XhciSched.c). Then 
XhcCmdTransfer() may return EFI_SUCCESS with EvtTrb == NULL. So I think it may 
bring exception at XhcCmdTransfer() caller with original code. 

But from your proposed fix, you just check if EvtTrb is NULL in 
XhcCheckUrbResult(). As the EvtTrb is calculated from XhcCheckNewEvent(), I 
didn't see any possibility of being NULL for EvtTrb.

And as Eric's patch is incomplete (only update XhciBulkTransfer(), in fact 
other transfers have problem as well) I made a little adjustment on it to keep 
consistent with EhciDxe/UhciDxe. 

could you help review and test on your machine?

Thanks
Feng

In case of transaction error failure which doesn't return correct Status leads 
to issue next command without resetting the port and in that scenario we have 
seen that EvTrb was NULL. Perhaps if transaction error status is reported 
properly, it might not be needed. But in general it's better to check for NULL 
before accessing the ptr.
