Hi All,

Device has crashed due to memory access after free while pending_fw_head 
list accessed. Kernel 4.4 stable version is used to reproduce this use 
after free.

Kernel panic is observed during device suspend/resume path in the 
kill_requests_without_uevent() called from fw_pm_notify().
when pending_list of a firmware_buf is accessed 0x6b(free pattern) 
pattern observed. Based on this firmware_buf is freed even if 
firmware_buf is part of
pending_fw_head list.

{code snippet}
1147 static void kill_requests_without_uevent(void)
1148{
1149	struct firmware_buf *buf;
1150	struct firmware_buf *next;
1151
1152	mutex_lock(&fw_lock);
1153	list_for_each_entry_safe(buf, next, &pending_fw_head, pending_list) 
{
1154	if (!buf->need_uevent)
1155	__fw_load_abort(buf);
1156	}
1157	mutex_unlock(&fw_lock);
1158}
1159#endif
{code}

-Thanks, Prasad
