3.6.11.7-rc1 stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Jiri Pirko [ Upstream commit 76c455decbbad31de21c727edb184a963f42b40b ] team_get_port_by_index_rcu() might return NULL due to race between port removal and skb tx path. Panic is easily triggeable when txing packets and adding/removing port in a loop. introduced by commit 3d249d4ca "net: introduce ethernet teaming device" and commit 753f993911b "team: introduce random mode" (for random mode) Signed-off-by: Jiri Pirko Signed-off-by: David S.
