Subject: USB: iowarrior: fix oops with malicious USB descriptors

commit 4ec0ef3a82125efc36173062a50624550a900ae0 upstream.

The iowarrior driver expects at least one valid endpoint.  If given
malicious descriptors that specify 0 for the number of endpoints,
it will crash in the probe function.  Ensure there is at least
one endpoint on the interface before using it.
