Message-ID: <sashiko-outbox-189131@kernel.org> (raw)

> The garmin_gps driver has a reset feature that is supposed to reset the
> device when writing a private reset request packet. The reset is however
> done synchronously from the write() callback (and without holding the
> required device lock) which leads to a deadlock in the line discipline
> when hanging up the port as part of disconnect.
>
> Switch to using the asynchronous reset interface while dropping the
> redundant and synchronous stopping of the interrupt urb (write()
> callbacks are supposed to be atomic and USB core, USB serial core and
> the driver itself will unlink and kill all URBs during disconnect).
>
> Fixes: 1da177e4c3f4 ("Linux-2.6.12-rc2")
