Detail

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

usb: gadget: u_audio: don't let userspace block driver unbind

In the unbind callback for f_uac1 and f_uac2, a call to snd_card_free() via g_audio_cleanup() will disconnect the card and then wait for all resources to be released, which happens when the refcount falls to zero. Since userspace can keep the refcount incremented by not closing the relevant file descriptor, the call to unbind may block indefinitely. This can cause a deadlock during reboot, as evidenced by the following blocked task observed on my machine:

task:reboot state:D stack:0 pid:2827 ppid:569 flags:0x0000000c

__do_sys_reboot+0xcc/0x1ec
__arm64_sys_reboot+0x28/0x30

...

The issue can also be observed by opening the card with arecord and then stopping the process through the shell before unbinding:

# arecord -D hw:UAC2Gadget -f S32_LE -c 2 -r 48000 /dev/null
Recording WAVE '/dev/null' : Signed 32 bit Little Endian, Rate 48000 Hz, Stereo
^Z[1]+ Stopped arecord -D hw:UAC2Gadget -f S32_LE -c 2 -r 48000 /dev/null
# echo gadget.0 > /sys/bus/gadget/drivers/configfs-gadget/unbind
(observe that the unbind command never finishes)

Fix the problem by using snd_card_free_when_closed() instead, which will still disconnect the card as desired, but defer the task of freeing the resources to the core once userspace closes its file descriptor.
