[PATCH] iio: at91-sama5d2_adc: Fix use after free bug in at91_adc_remove due to race condition

From: Zheng Wang
Date: Fri Mar 10 2023 - 04:18:02 EST


In at91_adc_probe, &st->touch_st.workq is bound with
at91_adc_workq_handler. Then it will be started by irq
handler at91_adc_touch_data_handler

If we remove the driver which will call at91_adc_remove
to make cleanup, there may be a unfinished work.

The possible sequence is as follows:

Fix it by finishing the work before cleanup in the at91_adc_remove

CPU0 CPU1

|at91_adc_workq_handler
at91_adc_remove |
iio_device_unregister|
iio_dev_release |
kfree(iio_dev_opaque);|
|
|iio_push_to_buffers
|&iio_dev_opaque->buffer_list
|//use
