A target portal group can be removed with rmdir() on its configfs
directory while it is still enabled and still attached to a USB gadget
function. usbg_drop_tpg() frees the struct usbg_tpg but never calls
usbg_detach(), and it leaves opts->can_attach set, so the function
instance keeps a dangling tpg pointer and a subsequent bind to a UDC
happily attaches to freed memory.

Enumerating the gadget then dereferences the freed tpg from the UAS/BOT
completion path, in softirq context:

 ==================================================================

Detach the gadget in usbg_drop_tpg() if the tpg is still connected, and
clear opts->can_attach for every function instance bound to this tpg so
that a later usbg_attach() cannot pick up the freed object.

The forward declarations of usbg_attach() and usbg_detach() are moved
above usbg_drop_tpg() since it now calls usbg_detach().

No Fixes: tag: I could not identify a single commit that introduced
the problem with confidence, so I have left it out rather than guess.

Reproduced on Linux 7.3.0-rc3 (5dd1818b15d9) with KASAN under QEMU using
dummy_hcd: create a tcm function and a target tpgt_1, write 1 to its
"enable" attribute, link the function into a gadget config, rmdir tpgt_1
without disabling it first, then bind the gadget to dummy_udc.0. With
this patch applied the same sequence produces no KASAN splat.
