[PATCH 3.16 042/366] media: rc: oops in ir_timer_keyup after device unplug

From: Ben Hutchings <hidden>
Date: 2018-10-14 15:55:59
Also in: lkml

3.16.60-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Sean Young <sean@mess.org>

commit 8d4068810d9926250dd2435719a080b889eb44c3 upstream.

If there is IR in the raw kfifo when ir_raw_event_unregister() is called,
then kthread_stop() causes ir_raw_event_thread to be scheduled, decode
some scancodes and re-arm timer_keyup. The timer_keyup then fires when
the rc device is long gone.

[bwh: Backported to 3.16:
 - There's no timer_repeat to move
 - Adjust context]
