Thanks, but it will need more work, the bridge ioctl calls were divided in two parts
before: one was deviceless called by sock_ioctl and didn't expect rtnl to be held, the other was
with a device called by dev_ifsioc() and expected rtnl to be held.
Then ad2f99aedf8f ("net: bridge: move bridge ioctls out of .ndo_do_ioctl")
united them in a single ioctl stub, but didn't take care of the locking expectations.
For sock_ioctl now we acquire (1) br_ioctl_mutex, (2) rtnl and for dev_ifsioc we
acquire (1) rtnl, (2) br_ioctl_mutex as the lockdep warning has demonstrated.
That fix above can work if rtnl gets reacquired by the ioctl in the proper switch cases.
To avoid playing even more locking games it'd probably be best to always acquire and
release rtnl by the bridge ioctl which will need a bit more work.
Arnd, should I take care of it?
Cheers,
Nik
