Re: Memory leak in isp1760-hcd.c - [PATCH 2/2] usb/isp1760: Fix racecondition memory leak

[Arvid Brodin]

This fixes a condition reported by Catalin Marinas:

schedule_ptds() is called from isp1760_irq() and removes the qh from the
controlqhs queue but ep->hcpriv still points to the qh and therefore it is not
freed.

Shortly after this, the isp1760_endpoint_disable() function sets ep->hcpriv to
NULL and calls schedule_ptds() but since the corresponding qh is no longer in
the queue, it is simply forgotten and reported by kmemleak.

While I was at it, I also replaced the lines in isp1760_endpoint_disable()
that removed remaining qtds from the qh with a WARN_ON check for non-empty qh,
in line with earlier comments from Alan Stern (2011-07-20).
