[PATCH] media: imx-jpeg: Cancel timeout work on release
From: Kazuki Hanai
Date: Fri Aug 28 2026 - 01:15:17 EST
mxc_jpeg_device_run_timeout() signals job completion through
v4l2_m2m_job_finish(). This clears TRANS_RUNNING and allows a concurrent
v4l2_m2m_ctx_release() to continue. The timeout handler then accesses
ctx->mxc_jpeg once more while releasing hw_lock, but the release path may
already have freed ctx, resulting in a use-after-free.
Synchronously cancel the timeout work after v4l2_m2m_ctx_release() and
before freeing ctx. The cancellation must remain after the mem2mem release
because the timeout is the only completion path for a hung hardware job.
Fixes: cfed9632ca8e ("media: imx-jpeg: Add a timeout mechanism for each frame")
