5.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit 081a0e3b0d4c061419d3f4679dec9f68725b17e4 ]
net->dev_base_seq and ipv4.dev_addr_genid are monotonically increasing.
If we XOR their values, we could miss to detect if both values
were changed with the same amount.
Fixes: 0465277f6b3f ("ipv4: provide addr and netconf dump consistency info")
