From e2fe154e918276e900067a9d1d3a6a963faee041 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Christian Lamparter Date: Tue, 20 Jan 2009 00:27:57 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] p54usb: fix nasty use after free In theory, the firmware acks the received a data frame, before signaling the driver to free it again. However Artur Skawina has shown that it can happen in reverse order as well. This is very bad and could lead to memory corruptions, oopses and panics. Thanks to Artur Skawina for reporting and debugging this issue. Signed-off-by: Christian Lamparter Tested-by: Artur Skawina Signed-off-by: John W.
