Subject[PATCH 4.14 077/246] mwifiex: handle race during mwifiex_usb_disconnect
Date
4.14-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Ganapathi Bhat <gbhat@marvell.com>

[ Upstream commit b817047ae70c0bd67b677b65d0d69d72cd6e9728 ]

Race condition is observed during rmmod of mwifiex_usb:

1. The rmmod thread will call mwifiex_usb_disconnect(), download
SHUTDOWN command and do wait_event_interruptible_timeout(),
waiting for response.

2. The main thread will handle the response and will do a
wake_up_interruptible(), unblocking rmmod thread.

3. On getting unblocked, rmmod thread will make rx_cmd.urb = NULL in
mwifiex_usb_free().

4. The main thread will try to resubmit rx_cmd.urb in
mwifiex_usb_submit_rx_urb(), which is NULL.

To fix, wait for main thread to complete before calling
mwifiex_usb_free().
