Sheetal cb2c9c4bb1 dmaengine: tegra-adma: Fix use-after-free 
[ Upstream commit 2efd07a7c3 ]

A use-after-free bug exists in the Tegra ADMA driver when audio streams
are terminated, particularly during XRUN conditions. The issue occurs
when the DMA buffer is freed by tegra_adma_terminate_all() before the
vchan completion tasklet finishes accessing it.

The race condition follows this sequence:

  1. DMA transfer completes, triggering an interrupt that schedules the
     completion tasklet (tasklet has not executed yet)
  2. Audio playback stops, calling tegra_adma_terminate_all() which
     frees the DMA buffer memory via kfree()
  3. The scheduled tasklet finally executes, calling vchan_complete()
     which attempts to access the already-freed memory

Since tasklets can execute at any time after being scheduled, there is
no guarantee that the buffer will remain valid when vchan_complete()
runs.

Fix this by properly synchronizing the virtual channel completion:
 - Calling vchan_terminate_vdesc() in tegra_adma_stop() to mark the
   descriptors as terminated instead of freeing the descriptor.
 - Add the callback tegra_adma_synchronize() that calls
   vchan_synchronize() which kills any pending tasklets and frees any
   terminated descriptors.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
