Apparently, the slcan's tx_work is freed while being scheduled. While slcan_netdev_close() (netdev side) calls flush_work(&sl->tx_work), slcan_close() (tty side) does not. So when the netdev is never set UP, but the tty is stuffed with bytes and forced to wakeup write, the work is scheduled, but never flushed.
So add an additional flush_work() to slcan_close() to be sure the work is flushed under all circumstances.
The Fixes commit below moved flush_work() from slcan_close() to slcan_netdev_close(). What was the rationale behind it? Maybe we can drop the one in slcan_netdev_close()?
I see the same pattern in can327. So it perhaps needs the very same fix.

Hi Jiry,
Thanks for finding this!
Your patch looks correct to me, so please have a
Reviewed-by: Max Staudt max@enpas.org
for both this patch to slcan, as well as an 1:1 patch to can327.
Some history:
This is actually my code from can327, which was backported to slcan as part of Dario's larger modernisation effort.
The rationale for moving it was to flush the UART TX buffer in case of ndo_close(), in order to bring the device into a more predictable state between ndo_close() and ndo_open(). I guess that's actually counterproductive - whatever is in the TX buffer at that time should likely be fully sent. For example, can327 sends one last byte to abort any running chatty monitoring mode from the adapter. So your patch also fixes this as well ;)
Of course, this resulted in calling flush_worker() in both ndo_stop() and ldisc_close(), so I wanted to avoid code duplication, and relied on ndo_stop(). Oops.
Thanks,
Max

Added to linux-can,
Thanks, Marc
This patch fixes the crash, but is IMHO incomplete: The flush_work() in .ndo_stop() should also be removed, since its existence implies unexpected behaviour.
In other words, my moving it there in can327 was a double mistake, and slcan just happened to copy my mistake over.
I'm preparing a patch for can327, and it will remove the flush from .ndo_stop(). What shall we do about slcan?
