Subject: [PATCH 2/3] USB: serial: metro-usb: fix unthrottle race
Date: Tue, 23 Jun 2026 17:21:47 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260623152148.316149-3-johan@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260623152148.316149-1-johan@kernel.org>
If the completion handler races with unthrottle() both functions may try
to resubmit the same interrupt-in urb, but at most one will succeed.
Fix the unthrottle logic using a throttle-requested flag so that only
one attempt to resubmit the urb is made to avoid logging an error.
Fixes: 43d186fe992d ("USB: serial: add metro-usb driver to the tree")
