commitf0a868788fupstream. The current code for freeing the emux timer is extremely dangerous: CPU0 CPU1 ---- ---- snd_emux_timer_callback() snd_emux_free() spin_lock(&emu->voice_lock) del_timer(&emu->tlist); <-- returns immediately spin_unlock(&emu->voice_lock); [..] kfree(emu); spin_lock(&emu->voice_lock); [BOOM!] Instead just use del_timer_sync() which will wait for the timer to finish before continuing. No need to check if the timer is active or not when doing so. This doesn't fix the race of a possible re-arming of the timer, but at least it won't use the data that has just been freed.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
