[PATCH 4.7 038/143] USB: hub: change the locking in hub_activate

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Sep 05 2016 - 12:49:00 EST


4.7-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Alan Stern <stern@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 07d316a22e119fa301fd7dba7f1e1adfd4f72c05 upstream.

The locking in hub_activate() is not adequate to provide full mutual
exclusion with hub_quiesce(). The subroutine locks the hub's
usb_interface, but the callers of hub_quiesce() (such as
hub_pre_reset() and hub_event()) hold the lock to the hub's
usb_device.

This patch changes hub_activate() to make it acquire the same lock as
those other routines.
