patch "usbip: Fix error path of vhci_recv_ret_submit()" added to usb-linus

This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled

usbip: Fix error path of vhci_recv_ret_submit()

to my usb git tree which can be found at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/usb.git
in the usb-linus branch.

The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree (usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.)

The patch will hopefully also be merged in Linus's tree for the next -rc kernel release.

If you have any questions about this process, please let me know.

If a transaction error happens in vhci_recv_ret_submit(), event handler closes connection and changes port status to kick hub_event. Then hub tries to flush the endpoint URBs, but that causes infinite loop between usb_hub_flush_endpoint() and vhci_urb_dequeue() because "vhci_priv" in vhci_urb_dequeue() was already released by vhci_recv_ret_submit() before a transmission error occurred. Thus, vhci_urb_dequeue() terminates early and usb_hub_flush_endpoint() continuously calls vhci_urb_dequeue().

The root cause of this issue is that vhci_recv_ret_submit() terminates early without giving back URB when transaction error occurs in vhci_recv_ret_submit(). That causes the error URB to still be linked at endpoint list without “vhci_priv".

So, in the case of transaction error in vhci_recv_ret_submit(), unlink URB from the endpoint, insert proper error code in urb->status and give back URB.
