3.16.80-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Johan Hovold <johan@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit b14a39048c1156cfee76228bf449852da2f14df8 upstream.
If disconnect() races with release() after a process has been
interrupted, release() could end up returning early and the driver would
fail to free its driver data.
Fixes: 2824bd250f0b ("[PATCH] USB: add ldusb driver")
