[PATCH update 2] firewire: fix crash in automatic module unloading
From: Stefan Richter
Date: Wed Feb 27 2008 - 16:16:20 EST
"modprobe firewire-ohci; sleep .1; modprobe -r firewire-ohci" used to
result in crashes like this:

---[ end trace c7366c6657fe5bed ]---
Note that this crash happened _after_ firewire-core was unloaded. The
shared workqueue tried to run firewire-core's device initialization jobs
or similar jobs.
The fix makes sure that firewire-ohci and hence firewire-core is not
unloaded before all device shutdown jobs have been completed. This is
determined by the count of device initializations minus device releases.
Also skip useless retries in the node initialization job if the node is
to be shut down.

Update: Refreshed to be applicable after patch "firewire: fw-sbp2:
better fix for NULL pointer dereference in scsi_remove_device".
Update 2: Update 1 had a use-after-free bug. #-|
