For the situation that the disconnect event comes very late when the device is unplugged, the driver would resubmit the RX bulk transfer after getting the callback with -EPROTO immediately and continually. Finally, soft lockup occurs. This patch avoids to resubmit RX immediately. It uses a workqueue to schedule the RX NAPI. And the NAPI would resubmit the RX. It let the disconnect event have opportunity to stop the submission before soft lockup.

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.
