[PATCH v2] media: hantro: fix use after free bug in hantro_remove due to race condition
From: Zheng Wang
Date: Mon Mar 13 2023 - 11:20:54 EST
In hantro_probe, vpu->watchdog_work is bound with
hantro_watchdog. Then hantro_end_prepare_run may
be called to start the work.
If we remove the module which will call hantro_remove
to make cleanup, there may be an unfinished work.
The possible sequence is as follows, which will
cause a typical UAF bug.
Fix it by canceling the work before cleanup in hantro_remove.
