commit 3f4093e2bf4673f218c0bf17d8362337c400e77b upstream.
There are use-after-free bugs caused by tst_timer. The root cause
is that there are no functions to stop tst_timer in idt77252_exit().
One of the possible race conditions is shown below:
(thread 1) | (thread 2)
| idt77252_init_one
| init_card
| fill_tst
| mod_timer(&card->tst_timer, ...)
idt77252_exit | (wait a time)
| tst_timer
|
| ...
kfree(card) // FREE |
| card->soft_tst[e] // USE
The idt77252_dev is deallocated in idt77252_exit() and used in
timer handler.
This patch adds del_timer_sync() in idt77252_exit() in order that
the timer handler could be stopped before the idt77252_dev is
deallocated.

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.
