So the kernel test reports warning in case of '_ep->desc is null', right?

My understanding is that this judgement would return -ENODEV when
executing '... || _ep-desc ||..' and never execute '_ep->desc->bEndpointAddress' part,
so crash would not happen, am I right?

Yes, I agree using ep_index() would be easier for reading, just feel a little bit
uncomfortable to mix checking on _ep and it's container (ep) in the same line.
