net: alx: fix race condition in alx_remove
[ Upstream commit e89df5c4322c1bf495f62d74745895b5fd2a4393 ] There is a race condition exist during termination. The path is alx_stop and then alx_remove. An alx_schedule_link_check could be called before alx_stop by interrupt handler and invoke alx_link_check later. Alx_stop frees the napis, and alx_remove cancels any pending works. If any of the work is scheduled before termination and invoked before alx_remove, a null-ptr-deref occurs because both expect alx->napis[i]. This patch fix the race condition by moving cancel_work_sync functions before alx_free_napis inside alx_stop. Because interrupt handler can call alx_schedule_link_check again, alx_free_irq is moved before cancel_work_sync calls too. Signed-off-by: Zekun Shen <bruceshenzk@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
