Subject: ALSA: hda - Flush the pending probe work at remove
From: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@xxxxxxx>
commit 991f86d7ae4e1f8c15806e62f97af519e3cdd860 upstream.
As HD-audio driver does deferred probe internally via workqueue, the
driver might go into the mixed state doing both probe and remove when
the module gets unloaded during the probe work. This eventually
triggers an Oops, unsurprisingly.
For avoiding this race, we just need to flush the pending probe work
explicitly before actually starting the resource release.
