Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
USB: serial: mos7840: fix crash on resume<br />
<br />
Since commit c49cfa917025 ("USB: serial: use generic method if no<br />
alternative is provided in usb serial layer"), USB serial core calls the<br />
generic resume implementation when the driver has not provided one.<br />
<br />
This can trigger a crash on resume with mos7840 since support for<br />
multiple read URBs was added back in 2011. Specifically, both port read<br />
URBs are now submitted on resume for open ports, but the context pointer<br />
of the second URB is left set to the core rather than mos7840 port<br />
structure.<br />
<br />
Fix this by implementing dedicated suspend and resume functions for<br />
mos7840.<br />
<br />
Tested with Delock 87414 USB 2.0 to 4x serial adapter.<br />
<br />
[ johan: analyse crash and rewrite commit message; set busy flag on<br />
resume; drop bulk-in check; drop unnecessary usb_kill_urb() ]
