Fix null pointer dereference in usb_mouse

By chance when I was running 'supportconfig' on a openSUSE 15.1 guest under
bhyve, it crashes with SIGSEGV. Debugging and checking the code revealed the
problem. 

usb_mouse.c:538 eshort = data->blen > 0;

the data pointer above is accessed while being null. Attached is a trivial
patch that fixes the issue for me.
