xhci: Fix potential NULL ptr deref in command cancellation.

The command cancellation code doesn't check whether find_trb_seg()
couldn't find the segment that contains the TRB to be canceled.  This
could cause a NULL pointer deference later in the function when next_trb
is called.  It's unlikely to happen unless something is wrong with the
command ring pointers, so add some debugging in case it happens.

This patch should be backported to stable kernels as old as 3.0, that
contain the commit 37be0dc20a384ebd5d807e91f50e2a350105ad7e "xHCI:
handle command after aborting the command ring".
