Due to the reconnecting key word mentioned, no fix to
d0f09d1e4a88 ("ALSA: usb-audio: Refactoring endpoint URB deactivation")
will be added.

What is added is to capture EP_FLAG_STOPPING and remove the one
second wait limit if the reconnecting acts may make it easier to
repro the uaf. The diff is only for idea show.
If my understanding is right, this won't change.  The problem is
rather the lack of this function call itself, i.e. the missing
synchronization for the stream stop.
Thanks for taking a look at it.

It worked casually in the past because the endpoint resource is
released at a later point that is after all streams are really closed.
Now it's released earlier and hitting the UAF.
And add it if I dont misread you.

EP_FLAG_STOPPING is normally zero, hence putting a WARN_ON() shows
just a false-positive.

The original report didn't show the error, so it's not about the
timeout.  You're likely scratching a wrong surface, I'm afraid.

Please don't.  This will lead to a sleep-in-atomic Oops.
