From 631c694f7d7e17147bcf6c7c3669c8f4dc84cc09 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ernst Martin Witte Date: Sat, 9 Jan 2016 18:18:45 -0200 Subject: [PATCH] [media] af9013: cancel_delayed_work_sync before device removal / kfree af9013_remove was calling kfree(state) with possibly still active schedule_delayed_work(&state->statistics_work). A similar bug in si2157 caused kernel panics in call_timer_fn e.g. after rmmod cx23885.
