The zd1211rw driver is designed for single-function Wi-Fi dongles and
hardcodes its USB endpoints. When a malformed USB device exposes multiple
interfaces that match the driver's device ID, the driver blindly binds to
all of them.
During probe(), the driver calls usb_reset_device(), which iterates over
all interfaces and invokes the pre_reset() callback for each bound
interface. Since multiple interfaces are bound to zd1211rw, pre_reset() is
called sequentially for each instance, acquiring their respective
&mac->chip.mutex. Because all instances initialize their mutexes with the
same lock class, lockdep detects a task acquiring a lock of the same class
it already holds and flags it as a possible recursive deadlock:
WARNING: possible recursive locking detected
kworker/0:1/11 is trying to acquire lock:
ffff88810371dde0 (&chip->mutex){+.+.}-{4:4}, at:
zd_chip_disable_rxtx+0x20/0x50
drivers/net/wireless/zydas/zd1211rw/zd_chip.c:1465
but task is already holding lock:
ffff8881138ddde0 (&chip->mutex){+.+.}-{4:4}, at: pre_reset+0x28c/0x380
drivers/net/wireless/zydas/zd1211rw/zd_usb.c:1505
Fix this by explicitly rejecting secondary interfaces (bInterfaceNumber !=
0) during probe(). This ensures that only a single instance of the driver
binds to the device, eliminating the recursive locking scenario.
