3.0-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Ben Hutchings commit 711c68b3c0f7a924ffbee4aa962d8f62b85188ff upstream. We must not allow the input buffer length to change while we're shuffling the buffer contents. We also mustn't clear the WDM_READ flag after more data might have arrived. Therefore move both of these into the spinlocked region at the bottom of wdm_read(). When reading desc->length without holding the iuspin lock, use ACCESS_ONCE() to ensure the compiler doesn't re-read it with inconsistent results.
