When all files are closed, functionfs needs ffs_data_reset() to be done before any further opens are allowed. During that time we have ffs->state set to FFS_CLOSING; that makes ->open() fail with -EBUSY. Once ffs_data_reset() is done, it switches state (to FFS_READ_DESCRIPTORS) indicating that opening that thing is allowed again. There's a couple of additional twists: * mounting with -o no_disconnect delays ffs_data_reset() from doing that at the final ->release() to the first subsequent open(). That's indicated by ffs->state set to FFS_DEACTIVATED; if open() sees that, it immediately switches to FFS_CLOSING and proceeds with doing ffs_data_reset() before returning to userland. * a couple of usb callbacks need to force the delayed transition; unfortunately, they are done in locking environment that does not allow blocking and ffs_data_reset() can block. As the result, if these callbacks see FFS_DEACTIVATED, they change state to FFS_CLOSING and use schedule_work() to get ffs_data_reset() executed asynchronously. Unfortunately, the locking is rather insufficient. A fix attempted ine5bf5ee266("functionfs: fix the open/removal races") had closed a bunch of UAF, but it didn't do anything to the callbacks, lacked barriers in transition from FFS_CLOSING to FFS_READ_DESCRIPTORS _and_ it had been too heavy-handed in open()/open() serialization - I've used ffs->mutex for that, and it's being held over actual IO on ep0, complete with copy_from_user(), etc. Even more unfortunately, the userland side is apparently racy enough to have the resulting timing changes (no failures, just a delayed return of open(2)) disrupt the things quite badly. Userland bugs or not, it's a clear regression that needs to be dealt with. Solution is to use a spinlock for serializing these state checks and transitions - unlike ffs->mutex it can be taken in these callbacks and it doesn't disrupt the timings in open(). We could introduce a new spinlock, but it's easier to use the one that is already there (ffs->eps_lock) instead - the locking environment is safe for it in all affected places. Since now it is held over all places that alter or check the open count (ffs->opened), there's no need to keep that atomic_t - int would serve just fine and it's simpler that way.
