[PATCH] mmc: vub300: fix Use-After-Free of inactivity_timer on disconnect and probe failure

Newsgroups org.kernel.vger.linux-mmc,org.kernel.vger.linux-kernel,org.kernel.vger.stable
Message-ID <[email protected]>
The vub300 driver arms inactivity_timer during probe and acquires a kref
reference for the running timer. However, vub300_disconnect() sets
vub300->interface = NULL and drops the driver's kref without shutting down
the timer via timer_shutdown_sync().

If the timer expires after the host is removed and vub300 is freed,
or if concurrent work items re-arm the timer,
vub300_inactivity_timer_expired() accesses the already freed vub300
structure, causing a Use-After-Free.

Fix this by explicitly shutting down inactivity_timer via
timer_shutdown_sync() and releasing the timer's kref reference in
vub300_disconnect() and probe error cleanup paths.
