If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Johan Hovold commit c602254ba4c10f60a73cd99d147874f86a3f485c upstream. mutex_unlock() may access the mutex structure after releasing the lock and therefore cannot be used to manage lifetime of objects directly (unlike spinlocks and refcounts). [1][2] Use a kref to release the driver data to avoid use-after-free in mutex_unlock() when release() races with disconnect(). [1] a51749ab34d9 ("locking/mutex: Document that mutex_unlock() is non-atomic") [2] 2b9d9e0a9ba0 ("locking/mutex: Clarify that mutex_unlock(), and most other sleeping locks, can still use the lock object after it's unlocked") Fixes: 946b960d13c1 ("USB: add driver for iowarrior devices.")
