Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
hwmon: (corsair-psu) Stop device IO before calling hid_hw_stop
hid_hw_stop() does not stop the device IO.
This results in a race condition between hid_input_report() and the point
immediately following the execution of hid_device_io_start() within
corsairpsu_probe(). If the probe operation fails after "io start" has
been initiated, this race condition will result in a uaf vulnerability
[1].

Consequently, when corsairpsu_probe() fails and hid_hw_stop() needs to
be executed, the io_started flag is first cleared while holding the
driver_input_lock to prevent potential race conditions involving input
reports.

Fix the problem by calling hid_device_io_stop() before calling
hid_hw_stop().
[groeck: Updated subject and description;
call hid_device_io_stop() only if IO has been started]
