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 v2: - Add a patch for not kalloc dev->status - Redo the logic mechanism, so it also works with suspend (Thanks Yunke!) - Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20221212-uvc-race-v1-0-c52e1783c31d@chromium.org --- drivers/media/usb/uvc/uvc_ctrl.c | 3 +++ drivers/media/usb/uvc/uvc_status.c | 6 ++++++ drivers/media/usb/uvc/uvcvideo.h | 1 + 3 files changed, 10 insertions(+)
