This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled usb: gadget: f_ecm: Use atomic_t to track in-flight request to my usb git tree which can be found at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/usb.git in the usb-next branch. The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree (usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.) The patch will also be merged in the next major kernel release during the merge window. If you have any questions about this process, please let me know. >From d710562e01c48d59be3f60d58b7a85958b39aeda Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Bryan O'Donoghue <bryan.odonoghue@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 9 Jan 2020 13:17:22 +0000 Subject: usb: gadget: f_ecm: Use atomic_t to track in-flight request Currently ecm->notify_req is used to flag when a request is in-flight. ecm->notify_req is set to NULL and when a request completes it is subsequently reset. This is fundamentally buggy in that the unbind logic of the ECM driver will unconditionally free ecm->notify_req leading to a NULL pointer dereference.
