[ Upstream commit 7352e1d5932a0e777e39fa4b619801191f57e603 ]

In gs_can_open(), the URBs for USB-in transfers are allocated, added to the
parent->rx_submitted anchor and submitted. In the complete callback
gs_usb_receive_bulk_callback(), the URB is processed and resubmitted. In
gs_can_close() the URBs are freed by calling
usb_kill_anchored_urbs(parent->rx_submitted).

However, this does not take into account that the USB framework unanchors
the URB before the complete function is called. This means that once an
in-URB has been completed, it is no longer anchored and is ultimately not
released in gs_can_close().

Fix the memory leak by anchoring the URB in the
gs_usb_receive_bulk_callback() to the parent->rx_submitted anchor.

[ The variable usbcan was renamed to parent in
commit b6980ad3a90c ("can: gs_usb: uniformly use "parent" as variable name for struct gs_usb")
introduced in v6.6. To backport to v5.15, replace parent with usbcan. ]
