We also noticed the same crash as you found, and tried to fix it in a
similar way, but noticed that this still allows a memory leak to happen.

It seems from commit fe190ed0d602a ("xhci: Do not halt the host until
both HCD have disconnected their devices.") this was added to
xhci_stop(), and is the reason we encounter the NULL pointer in
xhci_irq() when it tries to access xhci->shared_hcd.

        +       /* Only halt host and free memory after both hcds are removed */
                if (!usb_hcd_is_primary_hcd(hcd)) {
        +               /* usb core will free this hcd shortly, unset pointer */
        +               xhci->shared_hcd = NULL;
                        mutex_unlock(&xhci->mutex);
                        return;
                }

While your fix will simply abort the xhci_irq() function if it
encounters XHCI_STATE_REMOVING, during xhci_plat_remove():

        static int xhci_plat_remove(struct platform_device *dev)
        {
                struct usb_hcd  *hcd = platform_get_drvdata(dev);
                struct xhci_hcd *xhci = hcd_to_xhci(hcd);
                struct clk *clk = xhci->clk;
                struct clk *reg_clk = xhci->reg_clk;

                xhci->xhc_state |= XHCI_STATE_REMOVING;

                usb_remove_hcd(xhci->shared_hcd);
                ^^^^^^^^^ calls xhci_stop() and sets shared_hcd=NULL
                usb_phy_shutdown(hcd->usb_phy);

                usb_remove_hcd(hcd);
                usb_put_hcd(xhci->shared_hcd);
                ^^^^^^^^^^^ shared_hcd==NULL, so this is a no-op

Since usb_put_hcd() doesn't get called for shared_hcd, we end up
with one additional kref count and hence a leak.

Wondering if we need to also remove the xhci->shared_hcd = NULL from
xhci_stop(), in addition to your patches. Thoughts?

Thanks,
Jack
