Matthias Kaehlcke fcaf94c49a rpmsg: char: Fix race between the release of rpmsg_eptdev and cdev
commit 7a534ae89e34e9b51acb5a63dd0f88308178b46a upstream.

struct rpmsg_eptdev contains a struct cdev. The current code frees
the rpmsg_eptdev struct in rpmsg_eptdev_destroy(), but the cdev is
a managed object, therefore its release is not predictable and the
rpmsg_eptdev could be freed before the cdev is entirely released.

The cdev_device_add/del() API was created to address this issue
(see commit '233ed09d7fda ("chardev: add helper function to register
char devs with a struct device")'), use it instead of cdev add/del().

Fixes: c0cdc19f84 ("rpmsg: Driver for user space endpoint interface")

README

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

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

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.
