usb: typec: qcom-pmic-typec: disable cc_debounce_dwork on stopgrafted
cc_debounce_dwork is queued from the set_cc() and start_toggling() callbacks, which run from TCPM's kthread worker. port_stop() returns before tcpm_unregister_port() destroys that worker. Flushing the worker during unregister may therefore run a callback which queues the delayed work after port_stop() has returned. The delayed work can then run after devres has freed pmic_typec_port. Use disable_delayed_work_sync() in port_stop() to cancel a pending instance and prevent the TCPM callbacks from queueing another one. This issue was found by an in-house static analysis tool.

+
+A guide to the Kernel Development Process
+=========================================
+
+The purpose of this document is to help developers (and their managers)
+work with the development community with a minimum of frustration. It is
+an attempt to document how this community works in a way which is
+accessible to those who are not intimately familiar with Linux kernel
+development (or, indeed, free software development in general). While
+there is some technical material here, this is very much a process-oriented
+discussion which does not require a deep knowledge of kernel programming to
+understand.
