BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in __list_add_valid+0x93/0xa0 lib/list_debug.c:26

Just want to warn anyone looking into this bug.
I came up with the fix, that passed syzbot testing and patch has been in
Linus' tree for couple of months: see commit 2c98b8a3458d ("media:
em28xx: add missing em28xx_close_extension").
After some time Maximilian sent a report about kernel hung bug caused by
my fix [1]. Just random hung caused by wrong reference counting
somewhere. No idea how to reproduce it locally or how to fix it.
I had to revert my fix, of course. That's why this bug appeared one more
time.
So, if you are going to send a fix, please, check that it does not have
same problem as mine.
Thanks
