broute table init hook sets up the "br_should_route_hook" pointer,
which then gets called from br_input.
commit a386f99025f13b32502fe5dedf223c20d7283826
(bridge: add proper RCU annotation to should_route_hook)
introduced a typedef, and then changed this to:
br_should_route_hook_t *rhook;
[..]
rhook = rcu_dereference(br_should_route_hook);
if (*rhook(skb))
problem is that "br_should_route_hook" contains the address of the function,
so calling *rhook() results in kernel panic.
Can't simply use "if (rhook(skb)", because br_should_route_hook_t *rhook
is not a function.
