Alan Stern d078f295a4 USB: net2280: Fix erroneous synchronization change
commit dec3c23c9a upstream.

Commit f16443a034 ("USB: gadgetfs, dummy-hcd, net2280: fix locking
for callbacks") was based on a serious misunderstanding.  It
introduced regressions into both the dummy-hcd and net2280 drivers.

The problem in dummy-hcd was fixed by commit 7dbd8f4cab ("USB:
dummy-hcd: Fix erroneous synchronization change"), but the problem in
net2280 remains.  Namely: the ->disconnect(), ->suspend(), ->resume(),
and ->reset() callbacks must be invoked without the private lock held;
otherwise a deadlock will occur when the callback routine tries to
interact with the UDC driver.

This patch largely is a reversion of the relevant parts of
f16443a034.  It also drops the private lock around the calls to
->suspend() and ->resume() (something the earlier patch forgot to do).
This is safe from races with device interrupts because it occurs
within the interrupt handler.

Finally, the patch changes where the ->disconnect() callback is
invoked when net2280_pullup() turns the pullup off.  Rather than
making the callback from within stop_activity() at a time when dropping
the private lock could be unsafe, the callback is moved to a point
after the lock has already been dropped.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
