6.6-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit becbd5850c03ed33b232083dd66c6e38c0c0e569 ] __neigh_notify() can be called without RTNL or RCU protection. Use RCU protection to avoid potential UAF.
