staging: usbip: fix potential segfault because of unchecked return value of strchr.

2012-04-10T16:47:06+00:00

This doesn't happen with the usbip virtual hci module, but another
module wanting to interface with this user space code could cause a
seg-fault by sending data without newlines.

staging: usbip: fix the usage of kthread_stop()

2012-04-10T16:28:04+00:00

stub_shutdown_connection() and vhci_shutdown_connection() use
task_is_dead() before kthread_stop(). This buys nothing and wrong.
kthread_stop() is fine even if this thread is dead. However, if it
is dead nothing protects this task_struct, we shouldn't touch this
memory.

Change the code to do the necessary get_task_struct/put_task_struct.

This patch assumes that

	- xxx_shutdown_connection() is always called, so we can't
	  leak the task_struct.

	- kthread_stop_put() can't be called twice on the same task.

staging: usbip: fix to prevent potentially using uninitialized spinlock

2012-02-08T22:14:15+00:00

The stub_probe function can be called as soon as the stub_driver is
registered. This can lead to the busid_table_lock being used before it
is initialized. Moved calling the init_busid_table function (which
initalizes this spinlock) to be called earlier in the init function to
prevent this from happening.
