  Currently, when stopping the stream, uvcg_video_enable immediately
deallocates the usb_requests after calling usb_ep_dequeue. However,
usb_ep_dequeue is asynchronous and it is possible that it a request
that is still in use by the controller. This can lead to some hard
to reproduce crashes with double frees and general memory
inconsistencies.

This patch sets up some stronger guarantees around when a request should
be deallocated. To that extent, this patch does the following:
1. When stream is stopped only the currently owned uvc_requests are freed
   and all in-flight uvc_requests are marked 'abandoned'
2. uvc_video_complete callback is made responsible for freeing up the
   abandoned requests. No uvc specific logic is triggered when handling
   abandoned requests.

This ensures that the ownership of uvc_request (and its corresponding
usb_request) is never ambiguous, and uvc_requests are always freed
regardless of when the requests are returned to the gadget driver.

Other changes in the patch are required to decouple the allocated
uvc_requests from uvc_video that allocated them.

Unfortunatly the format of this patch is relly heavy to review. You are
changing to much at once. Could you please finegrain your changes in
smaller overall topics.

Starting with the transition from the one big kcalloc to the chaned
list. This patch will be easy to review.

After that you could address this issue you are refering to.

This will help the review alot. I already saw some changes that are
probably even completely unrelated.

This change seems unrelated to the rest of the patch.

This whole check of is_abondoned is really hard to read and understand.
Could it be somehow simplified?

I thought we wanted to iterate over the req_free list in this function?

So what you actually do is moving the requests from the free list
to the ureqs list. Would it not be possible to separate the cleanup
on two locations instead?

Thank you for the review, Michael!

Moved the split up patches to 
https://lore.kernel.org/20230930184821.310143-1-arakesh@google.com/.
Please continue the test/review there!

That is fair, sent out 
https://lore.kernel.org/20230930184821.310143-1-arakesh@google.com/ to split 
up patches as a separate thread, because the chains here are already getting 
difficult to follow.

Oh, yeah I suppose this is not strictly related. Considering how this patch
tightens up the threading guarantees, it seemed fair to add the locks for a 
function that said " called with &queue_irqlock held.. " as its singular 
comment. Okay to remove it though.

Let me know if the split up patches are any easier to parse. We need this 
because we aren't synchronizing the whole complete callback, and we can't 
rely on the old state of is_abandoned flag to queue the request back up.
So we need to get the current value of is_abandoned, and queue the request
back iff the request isn't currently abandoned (and we can guaratee that it
won't be abandoned while we're queueing it back up).

Not here. This function frees all the requests owned by uvc gadget driver, which is
held in ureqs. We abandon the inflight requests, and removed them from ureqs before 
cleaning up.

Rather than thinking of it as "moving the requests from req_free to 
ureqs", it might be easier to reason it as: removing all uvc_requests from 
ureqs that are associated with inflight usb_requests. We remove those 
uvc_requests by using req_free but we could've done that
in some other way (happy to take recommendations if there is a simpler
way of doing so).
