[PATCH net 11/16] can: gs_usb: kill RX URBs before destroying the netdevs

From: Marc Kleine-Budde <mkl@pengutronix.de>

Also in: linux-can, stable
Subsystem: can network drivers, the rest · Maintainers: Marc Kleine-Budde, Vincent Mailhol, Linus Torvalds

From: Fan Wu <redacted>

gs_usb_disconnect() destroys the channels one by one via
gs_destroy_candev()/free_candev(). gs_can_close() disposes the RX bulk URBs
on the shared parent->rx_submitted anchor only when the last active channel
is closed. With two or more channels up, the earlier channels are freed
while their RX URBs are still submitted, and a completion in
gs_usb_receive_bulk_callback() accesses the freed struct gs_can and struct
net_device.

Fix this by killing the anchored RX URBs in gs_usb_disconnect() before the
first netdev is destroyed, and in the error path of gs_usb_probe() before
the previously created netdevs are destroyed.

usb_kill_anchored_urbs() waits for running completions and a killed URB
completes with -ENOENT, so the completion handler returns without
resubmitting the URB. The kill in gs_can_close() of the last active channel
then operates on an already empty anchor.

This issue was found by an in-house static analysis tool.
