[ Upstream commit ad70411a978d1e6e97b1e341a7bde9a79af0c93d ]

When disconnecting cdc_ncm the kernel sporadically crashes shortly
after the disconnect:

The crash happens roughly 125..130ms after the disconnect. This
correlates with the 'delay' timer that is started on certain USB tx/rx
errors in the URB completion handler.

The problem is a race of usbnet_stop() with usbnet_start_xmit(). In
usbnet_stop() we call usbnet_terminate_urbs() to cancel all URBs in
flight. This only makes sense if no new URBs are submitted
concurrently, though. But the usbnet_start_xmit() can run at the same
time on another CPU which almost unconditionally submits an URB. The
error callback of the new URB will then schedule the timer after it was
already stopped.

The fix adds a check if the tx queue is stopped after the tx list lock
has been taken. This should reliably prevent the submission of new URBs
while usbnet_terminate_urbs() does its job. The same thing is done on
the rx side even though it might be safe due to other flags that are
checked there.
