Yes. We might need synchronization between events, threads, and shutdown
in usbip_host side and in connection polling and threads in vhci.

I am also looking at the shutdown sequences closely as well since the
local state is referenced without usbip_device lock in these paths.

I am approaching these problems as peeling the onion an expression so
we can limit the changes and take a spot fix approach. We have the
goal to address these crashes and not introduce regressions.

I think my [PATCH v4 01/12]-[PATCH v4 06/12] simplify your further changes
without introducing regressions. While ud->lock is held when checking ud->status,
current attach/detach code is racy about read/update of ud->status . I think we
can close race in attach/detach code via a simple usbip_event_mutex serialization.

Do you mean patches 1,2,3,3,4,5,6?
