commit b1b552a69b8805e7e338074a9e8b670b4a795218 upstream.

This patch fixes an issue introduced by patch:

    72c973d usb: gadget: add usb_endpoint_descriptor to struct usb_ep

Without this patch we see a kworker taking 100% CPU, after this sequence:

- Connect gadget to a windows host
- load g_ether
- ifconfig up <ip>; ifconfig down; ifconfig up
- ping <windows host>

The "ifconfig down" results in calling eth_stop(), which will call
usb_ep_disable() and, if the carrier is still ok, usb_ep_enable():

         usb_ep_disable(link->in_ep);
         usb_ep_disable(link->out_ep);
         if (netif_carrier_ok(net)) {
                 usb_ep_enable(link->in_ep);
                 usb_ep_enable(link->out_ep);
         }

The ep should stay enabled, but will not, as ep_disable set the desc
pointer to NULL, therefore the subsequent ep_enable will fail. This leads
to permanent rescheduling of the eth_work() worker as usb_ep_queue()
(called by the worker) will fail due to the unconfigured endpoint.

We fix this issue by saving the ep descriptors and re-assign them before
usb_ep_enable().
