[PATCH net v2] net: ethernet: fix use after free bug in ns83820_remove_one due to race condition
From: Zheng Wang
Date: Thu Apr 13 2023 - 03:14:50 EST
In ns83820_init_one, dev->tq_refill was bound with queue_refill.
If irq happens, it will call ns83820_irq->ns83820_do_isr.
Then it invokes tasklet_schedule(&dev->rx_tasklet) to start
rx_action function. And rx_action will call ns83820_rx_kick
and finally start queue_refill function.
If we remove the driver without finishing the work, there
may be a race condition between ndev, which may cause UAF
bug.

v2:
- cancel the work after unregister_netdev to make sure there
is no more request suggested by Jakub Kicinski
