commit 7c32ae35fbf9cffb7aa3736f44dec10c944ca18e upstream. The call of unsubscribe_port() which manages the group count and module refcount from delete_and_unsubscribe_port() looks racy; it's not covered by the group list lock, and it's likely a cause of the reported unbalance at port deletion. Let's move the call inside the group list_mutex to plug the hole.

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.
