[PATCH 1/1] usb: misc: usbtest: add fix for driver hang

From: Lu Baolu
Date: Tue Aug 09 2016 - 01:02:27 EST


In sg_timeout(), req->status is set to "-ETIMEDOUT" before calling
into usb_sg_cancel(). usb_sg_cancel() will do nothing and return
directly if req->status has been set to a non-zero value. This will
cause driver hang as soon as transfer time out is triggered.

In my test case, below system log shows when port reset happens after
urb being submitted.

This patch fixes this driver hang. It should be back-ported to stable
kernel with version after v3.15.
