mainlining shenanigans
630fd4822a
There is a race between switchdev_bridge_port_offload() and the
dsa_port_switchdev_sync_attrs() call right below it.
When switchdev_bridge_port_offload() finishes, FDB entries have been
replayed by the bridge, but are scheduled for deferred execution later.
However dsa_port_switchdev_sync_attrs -> dsa_port_can_apply_vlan_filtering()
may impose restrictions on the vlan_filtering attribute and refuse
offloading.
When this happens, the delayed FDB entries will dereference dp->bridge,
which is a NULL pointer because we have stopped the process of
offloading this bridge.
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000000000000000

Error: dsa_core: Must first remove VLAN uppers having VIDs also present in bridge.
Fix the bug by doing what we do on the normal bridge leave path as well,
which is to wait until the deferred FDB entries complete executing, then
exit.
The placement of dsa_flush_workqueue() after switchdev_bridge_port_unoffload()
guarantees that both the FDB additions and deletions on rollback are waited for.

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.
