  usb_kill_urb warranties that all the handlers are finished when it
returns, but does not protect against threads that might be handling
asynchronously the urb.

For UVC, the function uvc_ctrl_status_event_async() takes care of
control changes asynchronously.

 If the code is executed in the following order:

CPU 0					CPU 1
===== 					=====
uvc_status_complete()
					uvc_status_stop()
uvc_ctrl_status_event_work()
					uvc_status_start() -> FAIL

Then uvc_status_start will keep failing and this error will be shown:

<4>[    5.540139] URB 0000000000000000 submitted while active
drivers/usb/core/urb.c:378 usb_submit_urb+0x4c3/0x528

Let's improve the current situation, by not re-submiting the urb if
we are stopping the status event. Also process the queued work
(if any) during stop.

CPU 0					CPU 1
===== 					=====
uvc_status_complete()
					uvc_status_stop()
					uvc_status_start()
uvc_ctrl_status_event_work() -> FAIL

Hopefully, with the usb layer protection this should be enough to cover
all the cases.

Changes in v7:
- Use smp_store_release. (Thanks Hilf!)
- Rebase on top of uvc/next.
- Link to v6: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20221212-uvc-race-v6-0-2a662f8de011@chromium.org

Changes in v6:
- Improve comments. (Thanks Laurent).
- Use true/false instead of 1/0 (Thanks Laurent).
- Link to v5: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20221212-uvc-race-v5-0-3db3933d1608@chromium.org

Changes in v5:
- atomic_t do not impose barriers, use smp_mb() instead. (Thanks Laurent)
- Add an extra cancel_work_sync().
- Link to v4: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20221212-uvc-race-v4-0-38d7075b03f5@chromium.org

Changes in v4:
- Replace bool with atomic_t to avoid compiler reordering.
- First complete the async work and then kill the urb to avoid race (Thanks Laurent!)

Changes in v3:
- Remove the patch for dev->status, makes more sense in another series, and makes
  the zero day less nervous.
- Update reviewed-by (thanks Yunke!).
- Link to v2: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20221212-uvc-race-v2-0-54496cc3b8ab@chromium.org

Changes in v2:
- Add a patch for not kalloc dev->status
- Redo the logic mechanism, so it also works with suspend (Thanks Yunke!)

For some reason the word "hopefully" in a bug fix doesn't make me very
hopeful ;-)

With data races, the concept of "written to memory" doesn't make much
sense anymore.

	* From this point, there are no events on the queue and the status URB
	* is dead. No events will be queued until uvc_status_start() is called.
	* The barrier is needed to make sure that flush_status is visible to
	* uvc_ctrl_status_event_work() when uvc_status_start() will be called
	* again.

I'll update the comments locally.
