Subject: [PATCH 5.3 017/112] USB: adutux: fix use-after-free on release

From: Johan Hovold <johan@...nel.org>

commit 123a0f125fa3d2104043697baa62899d9e549272 upstream.

The driver was accessing its struct usb_device in its release()
callback without holding a reference. This would lead to a
use-after-free whenever the device was disconnected while the character
device was still open.

Fixes: 66d4bc30d128 ("USB: adutux: remove custom debug macro")
