[PATCH v2 2/2] misc: fastrpc: reject new invocations during device removal

Richard Acayan
2023-03-27T21:03:27Z

The channel's rpmsg object allows new invocations to be made. After old
invocations are already interrupted, the driver shouldn't try to invoke
anymore. Invalidating the rpmsg at the end of the driver removal
function makes it easy to cause a race condition in userspace. Even
closing a file descriptor before the driver finishes its cleanup can
cause an invocation via fastrpc_release_current_dsp_process() and
subsequent timeout.

Invalidate the channel before the invocations are interrupted to make
sure that no invocations can be created to hang after the device closes.
