[PATCH 3.16 167/366] xen-netfront: properly destroy queues when removing device
From: Ben Hutchings
Date: Sun Nov 11 2018 - 15:36:52 EST
3.16.61-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: David Vrabel <david.vrabel@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit ad0681185770716523c81b156c44b9804d7b8ed2 upstream.
xennet_remove() freed the queues before freeing the netdevice which
results in a use-after-free when free_netdev() tries to delete the
napi instances that have already been freed.
Fix this by fully destroy the queues (which includes deleting the napi
instances) before freeing the netdevice.

[bwh: Backported to 3.16: I already backported most of this along with
the later commit 74470954857c "xen-netfront: Delete rx_refill_timer in
xennet_disconnect_backend()"; don't move the del_timer_sync() again.]
