There is one race that both request_firmware() with the same firmware name. The race scenerio is as below: CPU1 CPU2 request_firmware() --> _request_firmware_load() return err another request_firmware() is coming --> _request_firmware_cleanup is called --> _request_firmware_prepare --> release_firmware ---> fw_lookup_and_allocate_buf --> spin_lock(&fwc->lock) ... __fw_lookup_buf() return true fw_free_buf() will be called --> ... kref_put --> decrease the refcount to 0 kref_get(&tmp->ref) ==> it will trigger warning due to refcount == 0 __fw_free_buf() --> ... spin_unlock(&fwc->lock) spin_lock(&fwc->lock) list_del(&buf->list) spin_unlock(&fwc->lock) kfree(buf) After that, the freed buf will be used. The key race is decreasing refcount to 0 and list_del is not protected together by fwc->lock, and it is possible another thread try to get it between refcount==0 and list_del. Fix it here to protect it together.
