Alexey Kodanev 4e14bf4236 macvlan: fix use-after-free in macvlan_common_newlink() 
The following use-after-free was reported by KASan when running
LTP macvtap01 test on 4.16-rc2:

Commit d02fd6e7d2 ("macvlan: Fix one possible double free") handles
the case when register_netdevice() invokes ndo_uninit() on error and
as a result free the port. But 'macvlan_port_get_rtnl(dev))' check
(returns dev->rx_handler_data), which was added by this commit in order
to prevent double free, is not quite correct:

* for macvlan it always returns NULL because 'lowerdev' is the one that
  was used to register rx handler (port) in macvlan_port_create() as
  well as to unregister it in macvlan_port_destroy().
* for macvtap it always returns a valid pointer because macvtap registers
  its own rx handler before macvlan_common_newlink().

Fixes: d02fd6e7d2 ("macvlan: Fix one possible double free")

README 

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
