5.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit 3ba359c0cd6eb5ea772125a7aededb4a2d516684 ]
RCU use in bond_should_notify_peers() looks wrong, since it does
rcu_dereference(), leaves the critical section, and uses the
pointer after that.
Luckily, it's called either inside a nested RCU critical section
or with the RTNL held.
Annotate it with rcu_dereference_rtnl() instead, and remove the
inner RCU critical section.
Fixes: 4cb4f97b7e36 ("bonding: rebuild the lock use for bond_mii_monitor()")
