Call to rpmsg_ctrldev_ioctl() and rpmsg_ctrldev_remove() must be synchronized. In present code rpmsg_ctrldev_remove() is not protected with lock, therefore new char device creation can succeed through rpmsg_ctrldev_ioctl() call. At the same time call to rpmsg_ctrldev_remove() function for ctrl device removal will free associated rpdev device. As char device creation already succeeded, user space is free to issue open() call which maps to rpmsg_create_ept() in kernel. rpmsg_create_ept() function tries to reference rpdev which has already been freed through rpmsg_ctrldev_remove(). Issue is predominantly seen in aggressive reboot tests where rpmsg_ctrldev_ioctl() and rpmsg_ctrldev_remove() can race with each other. Adding lock in rpmsg_ctrldev_remove() avoids any new char device creation through rpmsg_ctrldev_ioctl() while remove call is already in progress.

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.
