The patch titled atkbd: cancel delayed work before freeing its structure has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was atkbd-cancel-delayed-work-before-freeing-its-structure.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/ ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: atkbd: cancel delayed work before freeing its structure From: Jiri Pirko <jpirko@xxxxxxxxxx> Pointed out by Oleg Nesterov. Since delayed work is used here, use of flush_scheduled_work() is not sufficient in atkbd_disconnect(). It does not wait for scheduled delayed work to finish. This patch prevents delayed work to be processed after freeing atkbd structure (used struct delayed_work is part of atkbd) by cancelling this delayed work.
