Subject: USB: core: Avoid race of async_completed() w/ usbdev_release()
From: Douglas Anderson <dianders@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit ed62ca2f4f51c17841ea39d98c0c409cb53a3e10 upstream.
While running reboot tests w/ a specific set of USB devices (and
slub_debug enabled), I found that once every few hours my device would
be crashed with a stack that looked like this:

Investigation using kgdb() found that the wait queue that was passed
into wake_up() had been freed (it was filled with slub_debug poison).
I analyzed and instrumented the code and reproduced. My current
belief is that this is happening:
1. async_completed() is called (from IRQ). Moves "as" onto the
completed list.
2. On another CPU, proc_reapurbnonblock_compat() calls
async_getcompleted(). Blocks on spinlock.
3. async_completed() releases the lock; keeps running; gets blocked
midway through wake_up().
4. proc_reapurbnonblock_compat() => async_getcompleted() gets the
lock; removes "as" from completed list and frees it.
5. usbdev_release() is called. Frees "ps".
6. async_completed() finally continues running wake_up(). ...but
wake_up() has a pointer to the freed "ps".
The instrumentation that led me to believe this was based on adding
some trace_printk() calls in a select few functions and then using
kdb's "ftdump" at crash time. The trace follows (NOTE: in the trace
below I cheated a little bit and added a udelay(1000) in
async_completed() after releasing the spinlock because I wanted it to
trigger quicker):
<...>-2104 0d.h2 13759034us!: async_completed at start: as=ffffffc0cc638200

mtpd-2055 3.... 13759497us!: usbdev_release after kfree(ps): ps=ffffffc0cc042080
<...>-2104 0d.h2 13760294us : async_completed before wake_up(): as=ffffffc0cc638200
To fix this problem we can just move the wake_up() under the ps->lock.
There should be no issues there that I'm aware of.
