What it is

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

USB: dwc2: shut down wakeup timer before freeing HCD state

dwc2_wakeup_detected() accesses the DWC2 host state and can rearm the

wakeup timer. dwc2_hcd_free() currently deletes the timer only after

freeing host-owned state, and timer_delete() does not synchronize a

callback or prevent it from being queued again.

Stop and shut down the timer in dwc2_hcd_release(), before the HCD

resources are freed. This covers both the HCD initialization error path

and normal HCD removal.
