Visual inspection of the usbvision driver shows that it suffers from three races between its open, close, and disconnect handlers. In particular, the driver is careful to update its usbvision->user and usbvision->remove_pending flags while holding the private mutex, but: usbvision_v4l2_close() and usbvision_radio_close() don't hold the mutex while they check the value of usbvision->remove_pending; usbvision_disconnect() doesn't hold the mutex while checking the value of usbvision->user; and also, usbvision_v4l2_open() and usbvision_radio_open() don't check whether the device has been unplugged before allowing the user to open the device files. Each of these can potentially lead to usbvision_release() being called twice and use-after-free errors. This patch fixes the races by reading the flags while the mutex is still held and checking for pending removes before allowing an open to succeed.
