Subject: [PATCH 1/2] USB: ldusb: fix memleak on disconnect
Date: Thu, 10 Oct 2019 14:58:34 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20191010125835.27031-2-johan@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20191010125835.27031-1-johan@kernel.org>

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")
Cc: stable <stable@vger.kernel.org>     # 2.6.13
