HID: usbhid: Fix race between usbhid_close() and usbhid_stop()
commit 0ed08faded1da03eb3def61502b27f81aef2e615 upstream. The syzbot fuzzer discovered a bad race between in the usbhid driver between usbhid_stop() and usbhid_close(). In particular, usbhid_stop() does: usb_free_urb(usbhid->urbin); ... usbhid->urbin = NULL; /* don't mess up next start */ and usbhid_close() does: usb_kill_urb(usbhid->urbin); with no mutual exclusion. If the two routines happen to run concurrently so that usb_kill_urb() is called in between the usb_free_urb() and the NULL assignment, it will access the deallocated urb structure -- a use-after-free bug. This patch adds a mutex to the usbhid private structure and uses it to enforce mutual exclusion of the usbhid_start(), usbhid_stop(), usbhid_open() and usbhid_close() callbacks.
