[PATCH 3.2 17/94] USB: gadgetfs: fix copy_to_user while holding spinlock

From: Ben Hutchings
Date: Thu Dec 28 2017 - 13:29:10 EST


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

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

From: Alan Stern <stern@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 6e76c01e71551cb221c1f3deacb9dcd9a7346784 upstream.

The gadgetfs driver as a long-outstanding FIXME, regarding a call of
copy_to_user() made while holding a spinlock. This patch fixes the
issue by dropping the spinlock and using the dev->udc_usage mechanism
introduced by another recent patch to guard against status changes
while the lock isn't held.
