e1000: fix possible reset_task running after adapter down
On e1000_down(), we should ensure every asynchronous work is canceled before proceeding. Since the watchdog_task can schedule other works apart from itself, it should be stopped first, but currently it is stopped after the reset_task. This can result in the following race leading to the reset_task running after the module unload: e1000_down_and_stop(): e1000_watchdog(): ---------------------- ----------------- cancel_work_sync(reset_task) schedule_work(reset_task) cancel_delayed_work_sync(watchdog_task) The patch moves cancel_delayed_work_sync(watchdog_task) at the beginning of e1000_down_and_stop() thus ensuring the race is impossible.
