4.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Huazhong Tan <tanhuazhong@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 6d4fab39533f1bcd933d82d1667ceea93e4de260 ] Since current locking was not covering certain code where netdev was being accessed or manipulated, this patch fixes it.
