Subject: [PATCH] usb: gadget: configfs: Fix KASAN use-after-free

When gadget is disconnected, running sequence is like this.
. android_work: sent uevent USB_STATE=DISCONNECTED
. Call trace:
  usb_string_copy+0xd0/0x128
  gadget_config_name_configuration_store+0x4
  gadget_config_name_attr_store+0x40/0x50
  configfs_write_file+0x198/0x1f4
  vfs_write+0x100/0x220
  SyS_write+0x58/0xa8
. configfs_composite_unbind
. configfs_composite_bind

In configfs_composite_bind, it has
"cn->strings.s = cn->configuration;"

When usb_string_copy is invoked. it would
allocate memory, copy input string, release previous pointed memory space,
and use new allocated memory.

When gadget is connected, host sends down request to get information.
Call trace:
  usb_gadget_get_string+0xec/0x168
  lookup_string+0x64/0x98
  composite_setup+0xa34/0x1ee8
  android_setup+0xb4/0x140

If gadget is disconnected and connected quickly, in the failed case,
cn->configuration memory has been released by usb_string_copy kfree but
configfs_composite_bind hasn't been run in time to assign new allocated
"cn->configuration" pointer to "cn->strings.s".

When "strlen(s->s) of usb_gadget_get_string is being executed, the dangling
memory is accessed, "BUG: KASAN: use-after-free" error occurs.
