Mark Tomlinson 7af54a4e22 usb: max-3421: Prevent corruption of freed memory
commit b5fdf5c6e6bee35837e160c00ac89327bdad031b upstream.

The MAX-3421 USB driver remembers the state of the USB toggles for a
device/endpoint. To save SPI writes, this was only done when a new
device/endpoint was being used. Unfortunately, if the old device was
removed, this would cause writes to freed memory.

To fix this, a simpler scheme is used. The toggles are read from
hardware when a URB is completed, and the toggles are always written to
hardware when any URB transaction is started. This will cause a few more
SPI transactions, but no causes kernel panics.

Fixes: 2d53139f3162 ("Add support for using a MAX3421E chip as a host driver.")

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.
