Subject: [PATCH 5.19 085/365] net: dsa: felix: suppress non-changes to the tagging protocol

From: Vladimir Oltean <vladimir.oltean@....com>

commit 4c46bb49460ee14c69629e813640d8b929e88941 upstream.

The way in which dsa_tree_change_tag_proto() works is that when
dsa_tree_notify() fails, it doesn't know whether the operation failed
mid way in a multi-switch tree, or it failed for a single-switch tree.
So even though drivers need to fail cleanly in
ds->ops->change_tag_protocol(), DSA will still call dsa_tree_notify()
again, to restore the old tag protocol for potential switches in the
tree where the change did succeeed (before failing for others).

This means for the felix driver that if we report an error in
felix_change_tag_protocol(), we'll get another call where proto_ops ==
old_proto_ops. If we proceed to act upon that, we may do unexpected
things. For example, we will call dsa_tag_8021q_register() twice in a
row, without any dsa_tag_8021q_unregister() in between. Then we will
actually call dsa_tag_8021q_unregister() via old_proto_ops->teardown,
which (if it manages to run at all, after walking through corrupted data
structures) will leave the ports inoperational anyway.

The bug can be readily reproduced if we force an error while in
tag_8021q mode; this crashes the kernel.
