As I mentioned, this needs to be done *after* deregistering the port or
you could theoretically end up with the work item being requeued.

Hmm sorry yes I forgot to mention this. I was counting on the private_data
already being null to prevent any new work being actually scheduled, so an
incoming restore state, for example, would be a nop.


Yes, the same applies for the "synchronous" requests, but that's a
preexisting issue.

Per the above I also assumed sync requests were also safe as is.

But I can certainly re-order things, how about:

mos7720_release():
   mos_parport->pp->private_data = NULL;
   parport_remove_port(mos_parport->pp);

   wait_for_completion_timeout();
   cancel_work_sync();

   usb_set_serial_data(serial, NULL);
   mos_parport->serial = NULL;

   parport_del_port(mos_parport->pp);
   kref_put();

Thanks,
Davidlohr
