[ Upstream commit8bdcf96eb1] Currently, ffs_epfile_release unconditionally frees the endpoint's read_buffer when a file descriptor is closed. If userspace explicitly opens the endpoint multiple times and closes one, the read_buffer is destroyed. This can lead to silent data loss if other file descriptors are still actively reading from the endpoint. By tying the lifetime of the read_buffer to the ffs_epfile structure itself (which is destroyed when the functionfs instance is torn down in ffs_epfiles_destroy), we eliminate the brittle dependency on open/release calls while correctly matching the conceptual lifetime of unread data on the hardware endpoint.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
