  - ALSA: us144mkii: re-anchor capture URBs on resubmission capture_urb_complete() resubmits each capture URB
    without anchoring it: usb_get_urb(urb); ret = usb_submit_urb(urb, GFP_ATOMIC); Anchoring is a property of
    a submission, not of the URB. The giveback path calls usb_unanchor_urb() before urb->complete(), so an URB
    resubmitted from its own completion handler is off the anchor. The capture URBs are anchored once, at
    stream start, so from the first completion onward tascam->capture_anchor is empty. tascam_free_urbs(),
    tascam_disconnect(), tascam_suspend() and the stop-work path all call
    usb_kill_anchored_urbs(&tascam->capture_anchor) to reap the capture URBs before anything is freed. With
    the anchor empty those calls return immediately and the URBs stay queued on the host controller.
    tascam_free_urbs() then returns the capture transfer buffers with usb_free_coherent(), and snd_card_free()
    releases the snd_card allocation that embeds tascam (card->private_data). The controller completes the
    queued URBs afterwards, writing device-supplied data into the freed transfer buffer, and
    capture_urb_complete() dereferences the freed driver object. KASAN on 7.2.0-rc5 (arm64): BUG: KASAN: slab-

    release_card_device snd_card_free tascam_disconnect Restore the usb_anchor_urb() between the reference
    count bump and the resubmission. That also makes the handler's usb_unanchor_urb() failure arm meaningful
    again and restores usb_kill_anchored_urbs() as a barrier on the disconnect, suspend and stop-work paths.
    The anchoring was removed on the premise that the URB is already anchored from the initial submission,
    which does not hold once the first giveback has run. Discovered by XBOW, triaged by Baul Lee
