4.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Stephen Hemminger <stephen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit 35a57b7fef136fa3d5b735ba773f191b95110fa0 ]
The rx_mode operation handler is different than other callbacks
in that is not always called with rtnl held. Therefore use
RCU to ensure that references are valid.
Fixes: bee9d41b37ea ("hv_netvsc: propagate rx filters to VF")
