The syzbot fuzzer found a race between URB submission to endpoint 0 and device reset. Namely, during the reset we call usb_ep0_reinit() because the characteristics of ep0 may have changed (if the reset follows a firmware update, for example). While usb_ep0_reinit() is running there is a brief period during which the pointers stored in udev->ep_in[0] and udev->ep_out[0] are set to NULL, and if an URB is submitted to ep0 during that period, usb_urb_ep_type_check() will report it as a driver bug. In the absence of those pointers, the routine thinks that the endpoint doesn't exist. The log message looks like this: ------------[ cut here ]------------ usb 2-1: BOGUS urb xfer, pipe 2 != type 2 WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 9241 at drivers/usb/core/urb.c:478 usb_submit_urb+0x1188/0x1460 drivers/usb/core/urb.c:478 Now, although submitting an URB while the device is being reset is a questionable thing to do, it shouldn't count as a driver bug as severe as submitting an URB for an endpoint that doesn't exist. Indeed, endpoint 0 always exists, even while the device is in its unconfigured state. To prevent these misleading driver bug reports, this patch updates usb_disable_endpoint() to avoid clearing the ep_in[] and ep_out[] pointers when the endpoint being disabled is ep0. There's no danger of leaving a stale pointer in place, because the usb_host_endpoint structure being pointed to is stored permanently in udev->ep0; it doesn't get deallocated until the entire usb_device structure does.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
