3.16.7-ckt9 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Jiri Pirko <jiri@xxxxxxxxxxx> commit 9215f437b85da339a7dfe3db6e288637406f88b2 upstream. Currently the list is traversed using rcu variant. That is not correct since dev_set_mac_address can be called which eventually calls rtmsg_ifinfo_build_skb and there, skb allocation can sleep. So fix this by remove the rcu usage here. Fixes: 3d249d4ca7 "net: introduce ethernet teaming device" Signed-off-by: Jiri Pirko <jiri@xxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: David S.
