Baul Lee 2615f0fb90 ALSA: us144mkii: re-anchor capture URBs on resubmission
capture_urb_complete() resubmits each capture URB without anchoring it:

	usb_get_urb(urb);
	ret = usb_submit_urb(urb, GFP_ATOMIC);

Anchoring is a property of a submission, not of the URB.  The giveback
path calls usb_unanchor_urb() before urb->complete(), so an URB
resubmitted from its own completion handler is off the anchor.  The
capture URBs are anchored once, at stream start, so from the first
completion onward tascam->capture_anchor is empty.

tascam_free_urbs(), tascam_disconnect(), tascam_suspend() and the
stop-work path all call usb_kill_anchored_urbs(&tascam->capture_anchor)
to reap the capture URBs before anything is freed.  With the anchor empty
those calls return immediately and the URBs stay queued on the host
controller.

tascam_free_urbs() then returns the capture transfer buffers with
usb_free_coherent(), and snd_card_free() releases the snd_card
allocation that embeds tascam (card->private_data).  The controller
completes the queued URBs afterwards, writing device-supplied data into
the freed transfer buffer, and capture_urb_complete() dereferences the
freed driver object.

KASAN on 7.2.0-rc5 (arm64):

Restore the usb_anchor_urb() between the reference count bump and the
resubmission.  That also makes the handler's usb_unanchor_urb() failure
arm meaningful again and restores usb_kill_anchored_urbs() as a barrier
on the disconnect, suspend and stop-work paths.

The anchoring was removed on the premise that the URB is already anchored
from the initial submission, which does not hold once the first giveback
has run.

Linux kernel
============

The Linux kernel is the core of any Linux operating system. It manages hardware,
system resources, and provides the fundamental services for all other software.

Quick Start
-----------

* Report a bug: See Documentation/admin-guide/reporting-issues.rst
* Get the latest kernel: https://kernel.org
* Build the kernel: See Documentation/admin-guide/quickly-build-trimmed-linux.rst
* Join the community: https://lore.kernel.org/

Essential Documentation
-----------------------

All users should be familiar with:

* Building requirements: Documentation/process/changes.rst
* Code of Conduct: Documentation/process/code-of-conduct.rst
* License: See COPYING

Documentation can be built with make htmldocs or viewed online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
