What it is

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

usb: vhci-hcd: Do not drop references before new references are gained

At a few places the driver carries stale pointers

to references that can still be used. Make sure that does not happen.

This strictly speaking closes ZDI-CAN-22273, though there may be

similar races in the driver.
