[PATCH] wifi: plfxlc: fix potential NULL pointer dereference in plfxlc_usb_wreq_async()

[Zheng Wang]

Although the usb_alloc_urb uses GFP_ATOMIC, tring to make sure the memory
 allocated not to be NULL. But in some low-memory situation, it's still
 possible to return NULL. It'll pass urb as argument in
 usb_fill_bulk_urb, which will finally lead to a NULL pointer dereference.

Fix it by adding additional check.

Note that, as a bug found by static analysis, it can be a false
positive or hard to trigger.
