36.692199] ---[ end Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception ]--- When the siano device is plugged in, it may call the following functions to initialize the device. smsusb_probe()-->smsusb_init_device()-->smscore_start_device(). When smscore_start_device() gets failed, the function smsusb_term_device() will be called and smsusb_device_t will be deallocated. Although we use usb_kill_urb() in smsusb_stop_streaming() to cancel transfer requests and wait for them to finish, the worker threads that are scheduled by smsusb_onresponse() may be still running. As a result, the UAF bugs could happen. We add cancel_work_sync() in smsusb_stop_streaming() in order that the worker threads could finish before the smsusb_device_t is deallocated.
