Hmm... it's a function called only from a single place in
configure_sync_endpoint() and it's in list_for_each_entry():
list_for_each_entry(fp, &sync_subs->fmt_list, list) {
int score = match_endpoint_audioformats(fp, subs->cur_audiofmt,
subs->cur_rate, subs->pcm_format);
so it must be hardly NULL in normal situations.
The only scenario I can imagine right now is that the whole structure
is still uninitialized while it's called. If so, it's a race problem,
and shouldn't be new to 3.8. A patch like below might paper over the
problem although it's far from perfect.

Yeah, that'll be really helpful.
Or, at least, could you try to copy sound/usb/* from 3.7 to 3.8 and
see whether it's really a regression there?
thanks,
Takashi
