If anyone has any objections, please let us know. ------------------ From: Marcin Slusarz commit 2e4a75cdcb89ff53bb182dda3a6dcdc14befe007 upstream When userspace uses SIGIO notification and forgets to disable it before closing file descriptor, rtc->async_queue contains stale pointer to struct file. When user space enables again SIGIO notification in different process, kernel dereferences this (poisoned) pointer and crashes. So disable SIGIO notification on close.
