Currently,the function update_port_device_state gets the usb_hub from udev->parent by calling usb_hub_to_struct_hub. However, in case the actconfig or the maxchild is 0, the usb_hub would be NULL and upon further accessing to get port_dev would result in null pointer dereference.
Fix this by introducing an if check after the usb_hub is populated.

I can't parse this sentence, s/th is missing...
Thanks for the review. Maybe this would sound better?
"This triggers hub_disconnect which will set hub's maxchild to 0"

"This would result in usb_hub_to_struct_hub in this function
returning NULL", perhaps?
yah sound better. Will take care of it in next version.
Thanks, -Udipto
