[PATCH 3.2 143/199] xen-netfront: Delete rx_refill_timer in xennet_disconnect_backend()

[Ben Hutchings]

3.2.87-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Boris Ostrovsky <boris.ostrovsky@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 74470954857c264168d2b5a113904cf0cfd27d18 upstream.

rx_refill_timer should be deleted as soon as we disconnect from the
backend since otherwise it is possible for the timer to go off before
we get to xennet_destroy_queues(). If this happens we may dereference
queue->rx.sring which is set to NULL in xennet_disconnect_backend().

[bwh: Backported to 3.2: there's only one RX queue here, and del_timer_sync()
 was called from xennet_remove() but that's also too late]
