Subject: Bug in br_handle_frame
Hi,
I have recently discovered that kernel 3.12.10 is occasionally crashing
due to NULL pointer dereference in function br_handle_frame when we
reconfigure the bridge, because function br_port_get_rcu returns NULL.
It is very hard for us to replicate this issue, because it happens about
once per month in our testing environment, but I have created the
attached patch. Can you please check it? The latest kernel seems to be
affected too.
Best regards
Tomas
