    usbnet: gl620a: fix endpoint checking in genelink_bind()

    Syzbot reports [1] a warning in usb_submit_urb() triggered by
    inconsistencies between expected and actually present endpoints
    in gl620a driver. Since genelink_bind() does not properly
    verify whether specified eps are in fact provided by the device,
    in this case, an artificially manufactured one, one may get a
    mismatch.

    Fix the issue by resorting to a usbnet utility function
    usbnet_get_endpoints(), usually reserved for this very problem.
    Check for endpoints and return early before proceeding further if
    any are missing.
