Subject: net: sit: Unregister catch-all devices
From: Hristo Venev <hristo@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit 610f8c0fc8d46e0933955ce13af3d64484a4630a upstream.
A sit interface created without a local or a remote address is linked
into the `sit_net::tunnels_wc` list of its original namespace. When
deleting a network namespace, delete the devices that have been moved.
The following script triggers a null pointer dereference if devices
linked in a deleted `sit_net` remain:
for i in `seq 1 30`; do
ip netns add ns-test
ip netns exec ns-test ip link add dev veth0 type veth peer veth1
ip netns exec ns-test ip link add dev sit$i type sit dev veth0
ip netns exec ns-test ip link set dev sit$i netns $$
ip netns del ns-test
done
for i in `seq 1 30`; do
ip link del dev sit$i
done
