If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 39b5875d28493f0b59b73588675c8f9a398d68d8 Author: Robert Hodaszi <robert.hodaszi@xxxxxxxx> Date: Wed Dec 11 15:47:41 2024 +0100 net: dsa: tag_ocelot_8021q: fix broken reception [ Upstream commit 36ff681d2283410742489ce77e7b01419eccf58c ] The blamed commit changed the dsa_8021q_rcv() calling convention to accept pre-populated source_port and switch_id arguments. If those are not available, as in the case of tag_ocelot_8021q, the arguments must be pre-initialized with -1. Due to the bug of passing uninitialized arguments in tag_ocelot_8021q, dsa_8021q_rcv() does not detect that it needs to populate the source_port and switch_id, and this makes dsa_conduit_find_user() fail, which leads to packet loss on reception.
