Subject: USB: serial: mos7840: fix another NULL-deref at open

Fix another NULL-pointer dereference at open should a malicious device lack an interrupt-in endpoint.

Note that the driver has a broken check for an interrupt-in endpoint which means that an interrupt URB has never even been submitted.

Fixes 3f5429746d91 ("USB: Moschip 7840 USB-Serial Driver")
