Gavin Li 662404b24a net/mlx5e: Block entering switchdev mode with ns inconsistency
Upon entering switchdev mode, VF/SF representors are spawned in the
devlink instance's net namespace, whereas the PF net device transforms
into the uplink representor, remaining in the net namespace the PF net
device was in. Therefore, if a PF net device's namespace is different from
its parent devlink net namespace, entering switchdev mode can create an
illegal situation where all representors sharing the same core device
are NOT in the same net namespace.

To avoid this issue, block entering switchdev mode for devices whose child
netdev net namespace has diverged from the parent devlink's.

README

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.
