When the buffer is enabled for ina2xx driver, a dedicated kthread is invoked to capture mesurement data. When the buffer is disabled, the kthread is stopped. However if the kthread gets register access errors, it immediately exits and when the malfunctional buffer is disabled, the stale task_struct pointer is accessed as there is no kthread to be stopped. A similar issue in the usbip driver is prevented by kthread_get_run and kthread_stop_put helpers by increasing usage count of the task_struct. This change applies the same solution.
