patch "USB: usb-skeleton: fix NULL-deref on disconnect" added to usb-linus

[gregkh]

This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled

    USB: usb-skeleton: fix NULL-deref on disconnect

to my usb git tree which can be found at
    git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/usb.git
in the usb-linus branch.

The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree
(usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.)

The patch will hopefully also be merged in Linus's tree for the
next -rc kernel release.

If you have any questions about this process, please let me know.

Subject: USB: usb-skeleton: fix NULL-deref on disconnect

The driver was using its struct usb_interface pointer as an inverted
disconnected flag and was setting it to NULL before making sure all
completion handlers had run. This could lead to NULL-pointer
dereferences in the dev_err() statements in the completion handlers
which relies on said pointer.

Fix this by using a dedicated disconnected flag.

Note that this is also addresses a NULL-pointer dereference at release()
and a struct usb_interface reference leak introduced by a recent runtime
PM fix, which depends on and should have been submitted together with
this patch.

Fixes: 4212cd74ca6f ("USB: usb-skeleton.c: remove err() usage")
Fixes: 5c290a5e42c3 ("USB: usb-skeleton: fix runtime PM after driver unbind")
