From: Rickard Strandqvist <rickard_strandqvist@spectrumdigital.se>

Move control-urb dereference to after NULL-check. There is otherwise a
risk of a possible null pointer dereference.

Was largely found by using a static code analysis program called
cppcheck.

[Johan: modify commit message somewhat ]
