The function 'ep0_rx_state()' accessed 'mreq->request' before verifying that mreq was valid. If 'next_ep0_request()' returned NULL, this could lead to a NULL pointer dereference. The return value of 'next_ep0_request()' is checked in every other code path except here. It appears that the intended 'if (mreq)' check was mistakenly written as 'if (req)', since the req pointer cannot be NULL when mreq is not NULL.
Initialize 'mreq' and 'req' to NULL by default, and switch 'req' NULL-checking to 'mreq' non-NULL check to prevent invalid memory access.
