3.16.42-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Johan Hovold <johan@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 75dd211e773afcbc264677b0749d1cf7d937ab2d upstream. Do not submit the interrupt URB until after the parport has been successfully registered to avoid another use-after-free in the completion handler when accessing the freed parport private data in case of a racing completion.
