3.8.13.12 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Herbert Xu <herbert@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit be4f154d5ef0ca147ab6bcd38857a774133f5450 ]
At some point limits were added to forward_delay. However, the
limits are only enforced when STP is enabled. This created a
scenario where you could have a value outside the allowed range
while STP is disabled, which then stuck around even after STP
is enabled.
This patch fixes this by clamping the value when we enable STP.
I had to move the locking around a bit to ensure that there is
no window where someone could insert a value outside the range
while we're in the middle of enabling STP.
