During unbind, ffs_func_eps_disable() will be executed, resulting in completion callbacks for any pending USB requests. When using AIO, irrespective of the completion status, io_data work is queued to io_completion_wq to evaluate and handle the completed requests. Since work runs asynchronously to the unbind() routine, there can be a scenario where the work runs after the USB gadget has been fully removed, resulting in accessing of a resource which has been already freed. (i.e. usb_ep_free_request() accessing the USB ep structure) Explicitly drain the io_completion_wq, instead of relying on the destroy_workqueue() (in ffs_data_put()) to make sure no pending completion work items are running.
