Linux kernel source tree
9f2a3933be
A call to usb_set_interface() crashes if the device is deallocated concurrently, such as due to physical removal or a serious IO error. It could also interfere with other drivers using the device if the current driver is unbound before the call is finished. Document the need to delay driver unbinding until this call returns, which solves both issues. Document the same regarding usb_clear_halt(), which is equally known to be routinely called by drivers. Explicitly mention finishing pending operations in the documentation of the driver disconnect callback.

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.
