Subject: [PATCH] atm: fore200e: fix use-after-free in tasklets during device
 removal

When the PCA-200E or SBA-200E adapter is being detached, the fore200e
is deallocated. However, the tx_tasklet or rx_tasklet may still be running
or pending, leading to use-after-free bug when the already freed fore200e
is accessed again in fore200e_tx_tasklet() or fore200e_rx_tasklet().

One of the race conditions can occur as follows:

CPU 0 (cleanup)           | CPU 1 (tasklet)
fore200e_pca_remove_one() | fore200e_interrupt()
  fore200e_shutdown()     |   tasklet_schedule()
    kfree(fore200e)       | fore200e_tx_tasklet()
                          |   fore200e-> // UAF

Fix this by ensuring tx_tasklet or rx_tasklet is properly canceled before
the fore200e is released. Add tasklet_kill() in fore200e_shutdown() to
synchronize with any pending or running tasklets. Moreover, since
fore200e_reset() could prevent further interrupts or data transfers,
the tasklet_kill() should be placed after fore200e_reset() to prevent
the tasklet from being rescheduled in fore200e_interrupt(). Finally,
it only needs to do tasklet_kill() when the fore200e state is greater
than or equal to FORE200E_STATE_IRQ, since tasklets are uninitialized
in earlier states. In a word, the tasklet_kill() should be placed in
the FORE200E_STATE_IRQ branch within the switch...case structure.

This bug was identified through static analysis.
