The device's remove() attempts to shut down the delayed_work scheduled on the kernel-global workqueue by calling flush_scheduled_work(). Unfortunately, flush_scheduled_work() does not prevent the delayed_work from re-scheduling itself. The delayed_work might run after the device has been removed, and touch the already de-allocated info structure. This is a potential use-after-free. Fix by calling cancel_delayed_work_sync() during remove(): this ensures that the delayed work is properly cancelled, is no longer running, and is not able to re-schedule itself. This issue was detected with the help of Coccinelle. Signed-off-by: Sven Van Asbroeck <TheSven73@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Alexandre Belloni <alexandre.belloni@bootlin.com>
