Why?  What problem are you solving here?  Is this fixing an older
commit, if so, what one?

Please provide a lot more information here, this is not very
descriptive.

thanks,

If the device is disconnected, how can the file be opened at all?
Shouldn't it have been torn down already?

And now you are holding a lock across some poll_wait() calls, is that
going to cause problems?

But shouldn't the normal call to poll_wait() fail here?

But you are now holding a mutex across a very very long period of time,
what will that change?

poll_wait() is not fail,  its main operation is to call  add_wait_queue()

maybe acquire mutex lock will take a long time,  but it's safe.

and also I find  similar usage in usb/class/usbtmc.c

Seems like a bug indeed, but I don't like the example in usbtmc.c.
Please let me know if the following is acceptable:

commit 83591ac63bc666a44f250b43af6c0f5a1e001841
Author: Pete Zaitcev <zaitcev@kotori.zaitcev.us>
Date:   Tue Mar 2 23:00:28 2021 -0600

    usblp: fix a hang in poll() if disconnected
    
    Apparently an application that opens a device and calls select()
    on it, will hang if the decice is disconnected. It's a little
    surprising that we had this bug for 15 years, but apparently
    nobody ever uses select() with a printer: only write() and read(),
    and those work fine. Well, you can also select() with a timeout.
    
    The fix is modeled after devio.c. A few drivers check the
    condition first, then do not add the wait queue in case the
    device is disconnected. We doubt that's completely race-free.
    So, this patch adds the process first, then locks properly
    and checks for the disconnect.

Ouch. I'll fix that, do some (sadly minimal) tests, and submit.

Typo: ! instead of |.  You have to look closely to see the difference.
