Andrew Gabbasov d74d586746 usb: gadget: f_fs: Fix use-after-free in ffs_free_inst
commit cdafb6d8b8 upstream.

KASAN enabled configuration reports an error

BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in ffs_free_inst+... [usb_f_fs] at addr ...
Write of size 8 by task ...

This is observed after "ffs-test" is run and interrupted. If after that
functionfs is unmounted and g_ffs module is unloaded, that use-after-free
occurs during g_ffs module removal.

Although the report indicates ffs_free_inst() function, the actual
use-after-free condition occurs in _ffs_free_dev() function, which
is probably inlined into ffs_free_inst().

This happens due to keeping the ffs_data reference in device structure
during functionfs unmounting, while ffs_data itself is freed as no longer
needed. The fix is to clear that reference in ffs_closed() function,
which is a counterpart of ffs_ready(), where the reference is stored.

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

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
