bridge: fix NULL pointer deref of br_port_get_rcu
The NULL deref happens when br_handle_frame is called between these 2 lines of del_nbp: dev->priv_flags &= ~IFF_BRIDGE_PORT; /* --> br_handle_frame is called at this time */ netdev_rx_handler_unregister(dev); In br_handle_frame the return of br_port_get_rcu(dev) is dereferenced without check but br_port_get_rcu(dev) returns NULL if: !(dev->priv_flags & IFF_BRIDGE_PORT) Eric Dumazet pointed out the testing of IFF_BRIDGE_PORT is not necessary here since we're in rcu_read_lock and we have synchronize_net() in netdev_rx_handler_unregister. So remove the testing of IFF_BRIDGE_PORT and by the previous patch, make sure br_port_get_rcu is called in bridging code.
