[PATCH] Input: yealink - abort URB submission on fatal errors

From: Slawomir Stepien <redacted>

The yealink driver uses two URBs (interrupt and control) to communicate
with the device. When an URB completes with an error status (such as
-EPROTO), the completion handlers (urb_irq_callback and urb_ctl_callback)
log the error but do not abort. Instead, they proceed to process the
potentially invalid data and unconditionally resubmit the URB.

Because control URBs are not rate-limited by the USB core, resubmitting a
failing control URB in a tight loop floods the console with error messages
and keeps the CPU completely busy in the softirq context. This eventually
triggers an RCU preempt stall:

yealink 3-1:36.0: unexpected response 0
yealink 3-1:36.0: urb_ctl_callback - urb status -71
rcu: INFO: rcu_preempt self-detected stall on CPU
Call Trace:

 worker_thread+0x92d/0xe10 kernel/workqueue.c:3486
 kthread+0x388/0x470 kernel/kthread.c:436

Fix this by checking the URB status for fatal errors (-ECONNRESET, -ENOENT,
-ESHUTDOWN, -ENODEV) in both urb_irq_callback() and urb_ctl_callback(). If
a fatal error is detected, the callback now returns early, breaking the
resubmission loop. For other non-zero statuses, skip processing the
response data and jump directly to resubmission. Additionally, use
dev_err_ratelimited() instead of dev_err() to prevent flooding the console
and triggering an RCU stall.
