4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Stefano Brivio <sbrivio@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit ad6c9986bcb627c7c22b8f9e9a934becc27df87c ] If we receive a packet while deleting a VXLAN device, there's a chance vxlan_rcv() is called at the same time as vxlan_dellink(). This is fine, except that vxlan_dellink() should never ever touch stuff that's still in use, such as the GRO cells list. Otherwise, vxlan_rcv() crashes while queueing packets via gro_cells_receive(). Move the gro_cells_destroy() to vxlan_uninit(), which runs after the RCU grace period is elapsed and nothing needs the gro_cells anymore. This is now done in the same way as commit 8e816df87997 ("geneve: Use GRO cells infrastructure.") originally implemented for GENEVE.
