Subject: net: bridge: Fix locking in br_fdb_find_port()
Patch-mainline: v4.18-rc1
Git-commit: 873aca2ee86e533665a73292c4e308ded1e9bafe
References: bsc#1112374
Callers of br_fdb_find() need to hold the hash lock, which
br_fdb_find_port() doesn't do. However, since br_fdb_find_port() is not
doing any actual FDB manipulation, the hash lock is not really needed at
all. So convert to br_fdb_find_rcu(), surrounded by rcu_read_lock() /
_unlock() pair.
The device pointer copied from inside the FDB entry is then kept alive
by the RTNL lock, which br_fdb_find_port() asserts.
Fixes: 4d4fd36126d6 ("net: bridge: Publish bridge accessor functions")
