Hyunwoo Kim 6769a0b7ee media: dvb-core: Fix use-after-free on race condition at dvb_frontend
If the device node of dvb_frontend is open() and the device is
disconnected, many kinds of UAFs may occur when calling close()
on the device node.

The root cause of this is that wake_up() for dvbdev->wait_queue
is implemented in the dvb_frontend_release() function, but
wait_event() is not implemented in the dvb_frontend_stop() function.

So, implement wait_event() function in dvb_frontend_stop() and
add 'remove_mutex' which prevents race condition for 'fe->exit'.

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.
