Subject: [PATCH net v3] net: ethernet: fix use after free bug in ns83820_remove_one due to race condition

In ns83820_init_one, dev->tq_refill was bound with queue_refill.

If irq happens, it will call ns83820_irq->ns83820_do_isr.
Then it invokes tasklet_schedule(&dev->rx_tasklet) to start
rx_action function. And rx_action will call ns83820_rx_kick
and finally start queue_refill function.

If we remove the driver without finishing the work, there
may be a race condition between ndev, which may cause UAF
bug.

v3:
- add tasklet_kill to stop more task scheduling suggested by
Horatiu Vultur
v2:
- cancel the work after unregister_netdev to make sure there
is no more request suggested by Jakub Kicinski

I think it looks OK:

It's not immediately obvious to me why disabling carrier and tx
are supposed to help. Please elaborate in the commit message if
you're confident that this is right.

Hi Jakub,

Thanks for your reply. I'll figure it out to see if it's really necessary.

Best regards,
Zheng
