From: Ben Hutchings
Date: Fri Sep 20 2019 - 10:31:20 EST


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

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

From: Oliver Neukum <oneukum@xxxxxxx>

commit 36e59e0d70d6150e7a2155c54612ea875e88ce8d upstream.

Abn URB may be may marked free only after the buffer has been
processed or there is a small window during which it could
be submitted on another CPU and overwrite an unprocessed buffer
