All of entries are freed in a loop, however, the freed entry is accessed by list_del() after the loop.
When epf driver that includes pci-epf-test unload, the pci_epf_remove_cfs() is called, and occurred the use after free. Therefore, kernel panics randomly after or while the module unloading.
I tested this patch with r8a77951-Salvator-xs boards.

This is not the correct way to submit patches for inclusion in the stable kernel tree. Please read: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/stable-kernel-rules.html for how to do this properly.

Can you provide the crash dump?

Need full crash dump to see if this is really required or not. Ideally this should be handled by configfs (or a configfs API could be used).
Thanks, Kishon

Ok. However, that is use-after-free bug. so, the crash log is changed randomly. I'll send some crash dumps.

Hi Kishon,
This is the crash log. I think you can reproduce this problem by loading and unloading the pci-epf-test modules some times, but I don't think you'll see similar logs in your environment.
The pci_ep_cfs_remove_epf_group function calls kfree for the `group`, however a member of group, `group_entry``, is accessed by a list_del() after the loop. The patch changes to remove list entries to prevent the accessing after freed object.
Thanks, Shunsuke
