+Subject: NFC: add NCI_UNREG flag to eliminate the race
+
+From: Lin Ma <linma@zju.edu.cn>
+
+commit 48b71a9e66c2eab60564b1b1c85f4928ed04e406 upstream.
+
+There are two sites that calls queue_work() after the
+destroy_workqueue() and lead to possible UAF.
+
+The first site is nci_send_cmd(), which can happen after the
+nci_close_device as below
+
+nfcmrvl_nci_unregister_dev | nfc_genl_dev_up
+ nci_close_device |
+ flush_workqueue |
+ del_timer_sync |
+ nci_unregister_device | nfc_get_device
+ destroy_workqueue | nfc_dev_up
+ nfc_unregister_device | nci_dev_up
+ device_del | nci_open_device
+ | __nci_request
+ | nci_send_cmd
+ | queue_work !!!
+
+Another site is nci_cmd_timer, awaked by the nci_cmd_work from the
+nci_send_cmd.
+
+ ... | ...
+ nci_unregister_device | queue_work
+ destroy_workqueue |
+ nfc_unregister_device | ...
+ device_del | nci_cmd_work
+ | mod_timer
+ | ...
+ | nci_cmd_timer
+ | queue_work !!!
+
+For the above two UAF, the root cause is that the nfc_dev_up can race
+between the nci_unregister_device routine. Therefore, this patch
+introduce NCI_UNREG flag to easily eliminate the possible race. In
+addition, the mutex_lock in nci_close_device can act as a barrier.
