> Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception

The bug was caused by dev_release() failing to turn off its
gadget_registered flag after unregistering the gadget driver.  As a
result, when a later user closed the device file before writing a
valid set of descriptors, dev_release() thought the gadget had been
registered and tried to unregister it, even though it had not been.
This led to the NULL pointer dereference.

The fix is simple: turn off the flag when the gadget is unregistered.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
