When I using the USB OTG Storage, this issue happened.
When remove the OTG Storage, it reproduced sometimes.

It returned 1 at since condition !hcd->primary_hcd is met.

Since hcd->priary_hcd was Null it didn't reach (hcd == hcd->primary_hcd).
It returned 1 at since condition !hcd->primary_hcd is met.

int usb_hcd_is_primary_hcd(struct usb_hcd *hcd)
{
	if (!hcd->primary_hcd)
		return 1;
	return hcd == hcd->primary_hcd;
}

I don't understand.  Why do these actions take place on two different
CPUs?  Aren't the primary_hcd and the shared_hcd structures allocated
by the same thread, on the same CPU?

The same question applies here.  Aren't the shared_hcd and primary_hcd 
structures released by the same thread, on the same CPU?

The real bug here is that the shared_hcd is released after the 
primary_hcd.  That's what you need to fix.

That's just a symptom, not the real cause of the bug.  You need to fix 
the real cause: the shared_hcd has to be released _before_ the 
primary_hcd.

The right way to do this is to make the shared_hcd take a reference to
the primary_hcd.  This reference should be dropped when hcd_release()
is called for the shared_hcd.
