commit 5610bcfe8693c02e2e4c8b31427f1bdbdecc839c upstream. A race condition may occur if the user physically removes the USB device while calling open() for this device node. This is a race condition between the ufx_ops_open() function and the ufx_usb_disconnect() function, which may eventually result in UAF. So, add a mutex to the ufx_ops_open() and ufx_usb_disconnect() functions to avoid race contidion of krefs.

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.
