Subject: [PATCH 3.16 64/72] USB: adutux: fix use-after-free on disconnect

3.16.79-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

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

commit 44efc269db7929f6275a1fa927ef082e533ecde0 upstream.

The driver was clearing its struct usb_device pointer, which it used as
an inverted disconnected flag, before deregistering the character device
and without serialising against racing release().

This could lead to a use-after-free if a racing release() callback
observes the cleared pointer and frees the driver data before
disconnect() is finished with it.

This could also lead to NULL-pointer dereferences in a racing open().

Fixes: f08812d5eb8f ("USB: FIx locks and urb->status in adutux (updated)")
