Subject: [PATCH] usb: gadget: f_ncm: Refactor bind path to use __free()

After an bind/unbind cycle, the ncm->notify_req is left stale. If a
subsequent bind fails, the unified error label attempts to free this
stale request, leading to a NULL pointer dereference when accessing
ep->ops->free_request.

Refactor the error handling in the bind path to use the __free()
automatic cleanup mechanism.

[PATCH 5.15.y 1/3] usb: gadget: Store endpoint pointer in usb_request

[Sasha Levin]

From: Kuen-Han Tsai <khtsai@google.com>

[ Upstream commit bfb1d99d969fe3b892db30848aeebfa19d21f57f ]

Gadget function drivers often have goto-based error handling in their
bind paths, which can be bug-prone. Refactoring these paths to use
__free() scope-based cleanup is desirable, but currently blocked.

The blocker is that usb_ep_free_request(ep, req) requires two
parameters, while the __free() mechanism can only pass a pointer to the
request itself.

Store an endpoint pointer in the struct usb_request. The pointer is
populated centrally in usb_ep_alloc_request() on every successful
allocation, making the request object self-contained.

[ Upstream commit 201c53c687f2b55a7cc6d9f4000af4797860174b ]

Introduce the free_usb_request() function that frees both the request's
buffer and the request itself.

This function serves as the cleanup callback for DEFINE_FREE() to enable
automatic, scope-based cleanup for usb_request pointers.
