The OUT endpoint completion (f_audio_out_ep_complete) and the set_alt path
schedule audio->playback_work, whose handler (f_audio_playback_work)
dereferences the f_audio (audio->lock, audio->play_queue, audio->card).
On teardown f_audio_free() frees the f_audio with kfree(audio) but never
cancels playback_work -- f_audio_disable() is empty and nothing else
drains it. A playback_work still pending when the function is freed runs
against freed memory, a use-after-free.
Cancel playback_work in f_audio_free() before kfree(audio). By then the
function is unbound and the OUT endpoint is disabled, so the work cannot
be re-queued and cancel_work_sync() is sufficient.
This was reproduced with KASAN as a slab-use-after-free in
u_audio_playback(), reached from f_audio_playback_work(), under dummy_hcd:
with a UAC1 playback stream active, unlinking the configfs function frees
the f_audio in f_audio_free() while the work is still in flight. A delay
was added to the gadget streaming path to make the schedule-vs-free race
land deterministically; the missing cancel is present regardless. With
this patch applied the splat no longer occurs.
