There is a UAF read when remove the wilc1000_spi module:

Since set 'needs_free_netdev=true' when initialize the net device, the
net device will be freed when unregister, then use the freed 'vif' to
find the next will UAF read.
Let's unregister the net device after removed from wilc list to avoid
the UAF.

Ajay, please don't use HTML as our lists drop those.

Thanks Ajay,
I have no real device, what kind of crash about your scenario?
> As I see, "vif_list" is used to maintain the interface list, so even when one interface is removed, another element is fetched from the "vif_list", not using the freed "vif"
For example if the "vif_list" has device A and device B, just like:
A->next = &B
B->prev = &A
When iterator on the vif_list,
1st: Got A and unregister A, A will be freed since needs_free_netdev=true
2nd: Try get B from A->next, A already freed in the first step, UAF occurred.
rcu list no implement the interface like "list_for_each_entry_safe".

If you don't have a real device to test on, please state that clearly in
the commit log. For example, "Compile tested only" or something like
that.
We get way too much untested patches where there's no indication that
they have had no testing. I'm really concerned about this trend, I'm
even considering should I just start dropping these kind of untested
cleanup patches?

Thanks Kalle,
I found this problem with a bpf mock device, and test this patch use
the same way.

That's very good info, please always include that information to the
commit log as well. That way there's a better understanding how this
patch is found.
