usbnet: fix skb traversing races during unlink(v2)
commit 5b6e9bcdeb65634b4ad604eb4536404bbfc62cfa upstream.
Commit 4231d47e6fe69f061f96c98c30eaf9fb4c14b96d(net/usbnet: avoid
recursive locking in usbnet_stop()) fixes the recursive locking
problem by releasing the skb queue lock before unlink, but may
cause skb traversing races:
- after URB is unlinked and the queue lock is released,
the refered skb and skb->next may be moved to done queue,
even be released
- in skb_queue_walk_safe, the next skb is still obtained
by next pointer of the last skb
- so maybe trigger oops or other problems
This patch extends the usage of entry->state to describe 'start_unlink'
state, so always holding the queue(rx/tx) lock to change the state if
the referd skb is in rx or tx queue because we need to know if the
refered urb has been started unlinking in unlink_urbs.
The other part of this patch is based on Huajun's patch:
always traverse from head of the tx/rx queue to get skb which is
to be unlinked but not been started unlinking.
