Syzbot has reported the following UBSAN splat:

UBSAN: array-index-out-of-bounds in drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/htc_hst.c:26:35
index 255 is out of range for type 'struct htc_endpoint[22]'
...

IIUC https://syzkaller.appspot.com/text?tag=ReproC&x=1734b9f1180000 makes
an attempt to emulate ath9k USB device in somewhat weird and obscure way
so I'm not sure whether this may happen on a real hardware. OTOH whether
ending with ENDPOINT_UNUSED in 'htc_connect_service()' may indicate the
malfunctioned real device, it may be better to reject such a device with
-ENODEV.
