We fixed the UAF issue in USB MIDI code by canceling the pending work
at closing each MIDI output device in the commit below. However, this
assumed that it's the only one that is tied with the endpoint, and it
resulted in unexpected data truncations when multiple devices are
assigned to a single endpoint and opened simultaneously.
For addressing the unexpected MIDI message drops, simply replace
cancel_work_sync() with flush_work(). The drain callback should have
been already invoked before the close callback, hence the port->active
flag must be already cleared. So this just assures that the pending
work is finished before freeing the resources.

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 reStructuredText 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.
