Kloetzke Jan ad70411a97 usbnet: fix kernel crash after disconnect
When disconnecting cdc_ncm the kernel sporadically crashes shortly
after the disconnect:

  ...

The crash happens roughly 125..130ms after the disconnect. This
correlates with the 'delay' timer that is started on certain USB tx/rx
errors in the URB completion handler.

The problem is a race of usbnet_stop() with usbnet_start_xmit(). In
usbnet_stop() we call usbnet_terminate_urbs() to cancel all URBs in
flight. This only makes sense if no new URBs are submitted
concurrently, though. But the usbnet_start_xmit() can run at the same
time on another CPU which almost unconditionally submits an URB. The
error callback of the new URB will then schedule the timer after it was
already stopped.

The fix adds a check if the tx queue is stopped after the tx list lock
has been taken. This should reliably prevent the submission of new URBs
while usbnet_terminate_urbs() does its job. The same thing is done on
the rx side even though it might be safe due to other flags that are
checked there.

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.
