From: Zheng Wang <zyytlz.wz@xxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 3228cec23b8b29215e18090c6ba635840190993d ] In rkvdec_probe, rkvdec->watchdog_work is bound with rkvdec_watchdog_func. Then rkvdec_vp9_run may be called to start the work. If we remove the module which will call rkvdec_remove to make cleanup, there may be a unfinished work. The possible sequence is as follows, which will cause a typical UAF bug. Fix it by canceling the work before cleanup in rkvdec_remove.
