As you wish. The huge patch is the first one basically reverting the
initial change plus its fixup back to pre v5.18 time.
Right now it is not usable here due to the double delete under RCU
which happens randomly but usually within 30min. But it appears I'm the
only one complaining so far ;)

If you want to merge it via next, be my guest. Can you apply it as-it
or do I need to repost it again?

This task might be within my capabilities. I guess you ask for something
that spins a few virtual interfaces and then creates a HSR ring on top
of it.
