Anoob Soman 2bd624b461 packet: Do not call fanout_release from atomic contexts
Commit 6664498280 ("packet: call fanout_release, while UNREGISTERING a
netdev"), unfortunately, introduced the following issues.

1. calling mutex_lock(&fanout_mutex) (fanout_release()) from inside
rcu_read-side critical section. rcu_read_lock disables preemption, most often,
which prohibits calling sleeping functions.

[  ] include/linux/rcupdate.h:560 Illegal context switch in RCU read-side critical section!
[  ]
[  ] rcu_scheduler_active = 1, debug_locks = 0
[  ] 4 locks held by ovs-vswitchd/1969:
[  ]  #0:  (cb_lock){++++++}, at: [<ffffffff8158a6c9>] genl_rcv+0x19/0x40
[  ]  #1:  (ovs_mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffffa04878ca>] ovs_vport_cmd_del+0x4a/0x100 [openvswitch]

[  ]  #3:  (rcu_read_lock){......}, at: [<ffffffff81614165>] packet_notifier+0x5/0x3f0

[  ]  [<ffffffff81614459>] packet_notifier+0x2f9/0x3f0

2. calling mutex_lock(&fanout_mutex) inside spin_lock(&po->bind_lock).
"sleeping function called from invalid context"

[  ] BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/locking/mutex.c:620
[  ] in_atomic(): 1, irqs_disabled(): 0, pid: 1969, name: ovs-vswitchd

[  ]  [<ffffffff816106dd>] fanout_release+0x1d/0xe0
[  ]  [<ffffffff81614459>] packet_notifier+0x2f9/0x3f0

3. calling dev_remove_pack(&fanout->prot_hook), from inside
spin_lock(&po->bind_lock) or rcu_read-side critical-section. dev_remove_pack()
-> synchronize_net(), which might sleep.

[  ] BUG: scheduling while atomic: ovs-vswitchd/1969/0x00000002
[  ] INFO: lockdep is turned off.
[  ] Call Trace:

[  ]  [<ffffffff810ea3fd>] synchronize_sched_expedited+0x53d/0x810
[  ]  [<ffffffff810ea6de>] synchronize_rcu_expedited+0xe/0x10
[  ]  [<ffffffff8154eab5>] synchronize_net+0x35/0x50
[  ]  [<ffffffff8154eae3>] dev_remove_pack+0x13/0x20
[  ]  [<ffffffff8161077e>] fanout_release+0xbe/0xe0
[  ]  [<ffffffff81614459>] packet_notifier+0x2f9/0x3f0

4. fanout_release() races with calls from different CPU.

To fix the above problems, remove the call to fanout_release() under
rcu_read_lock(). Instead, call __dev_remove_pack(&fanout->prot_hook) and
netdev_run_todo will be happy that &dev->ptype_specific list is empty. In order
to achieve this, I moved dev_{add,remove}_pack() out of fanout_{add,release} to
__fanout_{link,unlink}. So, call to {,__}unregister_prot_hook() will make sure
fanout->prot_hook is removed as well.

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.
