3.2-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Oliver Neukum <[email protected]> commit 5c22837adca7c30b66121cf18ad3e160134268d4 upstream. This patch fixes a race whereby a pointer to a buffer would be overwritten while the buffer was in use leading to a double free and a memory leak. This causes crashes.
