Subject: [PATCH iwl-net] ice: Fix use after free during unload with ports in bridge

Unloading the ice driver while switchdev port representors are added to
a bridge can lead to kernel panic. Reproducer:

  modprobe ice

  devlink dev eswitch set $PF1_PCI mode switchdev

  ip link add $BR type bridge
  ip link set $BR up

  echo 2 > /sys/class/net/$PF1/device/sriov_numvfs
  sleep 2

  ip link set $PF1 master $BR
  ip link set $VF1_PR master $BR
  ip link set $VF2_PR master $BR
  ip link set $PF1 up
  ip link set $VF1_PR up
  ip link set $VF2_PR up
  ip link set $VF1 up

  rmmod irdma ice

When unloading the driver, ice_eswitch_detach() is eventually called as
part of VF freeing. First, it removes a port representor from xarray,
then unregister_netdev() is called (via repr->ops.rem()), finally
representor is deallocated. The problem comes from the bridge doing its
own deinit at the same time. unregister_netdev() triggers a notifier
chain, resulting in ice_eswitch_br_port_deinit() being called. It should
set repr->br_port = NULL, but this does not happen since repr has
already been removed from xarray and is not found. Regardless, it
finishes up deallocating br_port. At this point, repr is still not freed
and an fdb event can happen, in which ice_eswitch_br_fdb_event_work()
takes repr->br_port and tries to use it, which causes a panic (use after
free).

Note that this only happens with 2 or more port representors added to
the bridge, since with only one representor port, the bridge deinit is
slightly different (ice_eswitch_br_port_deinit() is called via
ice_eswitch_br_ports_flush(), not ice_eswitch_br_port_unlink()).

A workaround is available: brctl setageing $BR 0, which stops the bridge
from adding fdb entries altogether.

Change the order of operations in ice_eswitch_detach(): move the call to
unregister_netdev() before removing repr from xarray. This way
repr->br_port will be correctly set to NULL in
ice_eswitch_br_port_deinit(), preventing a panic.
