Add a NULL check for the return value of calloc() in
do_standalone_mode(). If calloc() fails and returns NULL, the
subsequent access to fds[i].fd would cause a NULL pointer
dereference.

It is theoretically possible for calloc() to fail, however how often
does it fail and were you able to make this allocation to fail?

If not, how did you test this patch? In any case, I am not going to
take this patch and all the other patches you sent adding checks to
calloc() calls in other places in usbip tool.
