[PATCH v2] HID: fix a crash in hid_debug_events_release

From: Charles Yi
Date: Tue Oct 31 2023 - 00:33:26 EST


hid_debug_events_release() access released memory by
hid_device_release(). This is fixed by the patch.

When hid_debug_events_release() was being called, in most case,
hid_device_release() finish already, the memory of list->hdev
freed by hid_device_release(), if list->hdev memory
reallocate by others, and it's modified, zeroed, then
list->hdev->debug_list_lock occasioned crash come out.

The crash:
