Subject: usb: class: cdc-wdm: fix reordering issue in read code path
From: Oliver Neukum <oneukum@suse.com>
commit 8df672bfe3ec2268c2636584202755898e547173 upstream.
Quoting the bug report:
Due to compiler optimization or CPU out-of-order execution, the
desc->length update can be reordered before the memmove. If this
happens, wdm_read() can see the new length and call copy_to_user() on
uninitialized memory. This also violates LKMM data race rules [1].
Fix it by using WRITE_ONCE and memory barriers.
