Subject: [PATCH] usbip: give back URBs for unsent unlink requests during cleanup

In vhci_device_unlink_cleanup(), the URBs for unsent unlink requests are
not given back. This sometimes causes usb_kill_urb to wait indefinitely
for that urb to be given back. syzbot has reported a hung task issue [1]
for this.

To fix this, give back the urbs corresponding to unsent unlink requests
(unlink_tx list) similar to how urbs corresponding to unanswered unlink
requests (unlink_rx list) are given back. Since the code is almost the
same, extract it into a new function and call it for both unlink_rx and
unlink_tx lists.

Do not allow the system to crash, that is not ok.

This call makes no sense as you just rebooted the machine :(

Handle errors properly and recover from them and move on. A single tiny
driver should not take down the whole system.

The execution can reach only if there is a developer error and they passed
some random list in `unlink_list`. So, BUG() here crashes the kernel and
draws attention to this fact. Is WARN() a better option here? There is
no way to recover from this and continue with the rest of the function.
Either we WARN()/BUG() or we return silently.

Thanks!

Why would a developer do that? As that is not the case in the kernel
tree, no need to check for it.
