Re: [PATCH] PCI: endpoint: Fix use after free in pci_epf_remove_cfs()

Hi Kishon,

This is the crash log. I think you can reproduce this problem by loading and
unloading the pci-epf-test modules some times, but I don't think you'll see
similar logs in your environment.

The pci_ep_cfs_remove_epf_group function calls kfree for the `group`, however
a member of group, `group_entry``, is accessed by a list_del() after the loop.
The patch changes to remove list entries to prevent the accessing after freed
object.

Thanks,
Shunsuke
