musb_start_urb() doesn't check the pass-in parameter if it is NULL.  But
in musb_bulk_nak_timeout() the parameter passed to musb_start_urb() is
returned from first_qh(), which could be NULL.

So wrap the musb_start_urb() call here with a if condition check to
avoid the potential NULL pointer dereference.

Fixes: f283862f3b5cb("usb: musb: NAK timeout scheme on bulk TX endpoint")

Nit, you forgot a ' ', this should be:
	f283862f3b5c ("usb: musb: NAK timeout scheme on bulk TX endpoint")

You also had one extra id value in there, odd.  I'll edit this by
hand...

Sorry, thanks.

Not sure why 'git blame' gives that one extra on my computer. I will see
if I will figure it out...

Why use 'git blame'?  I use:
	git show -s --abbrev-commit --abbrev=12 --pretty=format:"%h (\"%s\")%n"

to generate these types of lines.

My ~/.gitconfig already has
	abbrev = 12

but I used 'git blame' to find the commit id which introduces the bug,
then just directly copied the commit id from there... only until now
know 'git blame' gives 13 chars...

I will create a shortcut for the command you gave above to avoid this 13
chars problem from now on.

Thanks,
-Bin.
