Subject: USB: Remove races in devio.c
From: Huajun Li <[email protected]>
commit 4e09dcf20f7b5358615514c2ec8584b248ab8874 upstream.
There exist races in devio.c, below is one case,
and there are similar races in destroy_async()
and proc_unlinkurb(). Remove these races.
cancel_bulk_urbs() async_completed()
------------------- -----------------------
spin_unlock(&ps->lock);
list_move_tail(&as->asynclist,
&ps->async_completed);
wake_up(&ps->wait);
Lead to free_async() be triggered,
then urb and 'as' will be freed.
usb_unlink_urb(as->urb);
===> refer to the freed 'as'
