spi: spidev: fix a race between spidev_release and spidev_remove
BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1888690 [ Upstream commit abd42781 ] Imagine below scene, spidev is referenced after it's freed. spidev_release() spidev_remove() ... spin_lock_irq(&spidev->spi_lock); spidev->spi = NULL; spin_unlock_irq(&spidev->spi_lock); mutex_lock(&device_list_lock); dofree = (spidev->spi == NULL); if (dofree) kfree(spidev); mutex_unlock(&device_list_lock); mutex_lock(&device_list_lock); list_del(&spidev->device_entry); device_destroy(spidev_class, spidev->devt); clear_bit(MINOR(spidev->devt), minors); if (spidev->users == 0) kfree(spidev); mutex_unlock(&device_list_lock); Fix it by resetting spidev->spi in device_list_lock's protection.
