3.5.7.26 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Krzysztof Mazur <[email protected]> commit d0308d4b6b02597f39fc31a9bddf7bb3faad5622 upstream. If the hub_configure() fails after setting the hdev->maxchild the hub->ports might be NULL or point to uninitialized kzallocated memory causing NULL pointer dereference in hub_quiesce() during cleanup. Now after such error the hdev->maxchild is set to 0 to avoid cleanup of uninitialized ports.
