Subject: ipv6: addrconf: break critical section in addrconf_verify_rtnl()
From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit e64e469b9a2c22d41b3dd7172118760cec22d473 ]
Heiner reported a lockdep splat [1]
This is caused by attempting GFP_KERNEL allocation while RCU lock is
held and BH blocked.
We believe that addrconf_verify_rtnl() could run for a long period,
so instead of using GFP_ATOMIC here as Ido suggested, we should break
the critical section and restart it after the allocation.
