3.16.47-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Johan Hovold <johan@xxxxxxxxxx> commit b58f45c8fc301fe83ee28cad3e64686c19e78f1c upstream. Make sure to deregister the USB driver before releasing the tty driver to avoid use-after-free in the USB disconnect callback where the tty devices are deregistered.
