Subject: [PATCH] net: fix possible store tearing in neigh_periodic_work()
Git-commit: 25563b581ba3a1f263a00e8c9a97f5e7363be6fd
Patch-mainline: v6.6-rc5
References: bsc#1220419 CVE-2023-52522 bsc#1220924
While looking at a related syzbot report involving neigh_periodic_work(),
I found that I forgot to add an annotation when deleting an
RCU protected item from a list.
Readers use rcu_deference(*np), we need to use either
rcu_assign_pointer() or WRITE_ONCE() on writer side
to prevent store tearing.
I use rcu_assign_pointer() to have lockdep support,
this was the choice made in neigh_flush_dev().
