bridge: fix bridge netlink RCU usage When the STP timer fires, it can call br_ifinfo_notify(), which in turn ends up in the new br_get_link_af_size(). This function is annotated to be using RTNL locking, which clearly isn't the case here, and thus lockdep warns: =============================== [ INFO: suspicious RCU usage. ] 3.19.0+ #569 Not tainted ------------------------------- net/bridge/br_private.h:204 suspicious rcu_dereference_protected() usage! Fix this by doing RCU locking here.
