team: Fix reference count leak when changing port netns
Patch #1 fixes a reference count leak that was reported by syzkaller.
The leak happens when a net device that is member in a team is changing
netns. The fix is to align the team driver with the bond driver and have
it suppress NETDEV_CHANGEMTU events for a net device that is being
unregistered.
Without this change, the NETDEV_CHANGEMTU event causes inetdev_event()
to recreate an inet device for this net device in its original netns,
after it was previously destroyed upon NETDEV_UNREGISTER. Later on, when
inetdev_event() receives a NETDEV_REGISTER event for this net device in
the new nents, it simply leaks the reference:
case NETDEV_REGISTER:
pr_debug("%s: bug\n", __func__);
RCU_INIT_POINTER(dev->ip_ptr, NULL);
break;
addrconf_notify() handles this differently and reuses the existing inet6
device if one exists when a NETDEV_REGISTER event is received. This
creates a different problem where it is possible for a net device to
reference an inet6 device that was created in a previous netns.
A more generic fix that we can try in net-next is to revert the changes
in the bond and team drivers and instead have IPv4 and IPv6 destroy and
recreate an inet device if one already exists upon NETDEV_REGISTER.
Patch #2 adds a selftest that passes with the fix and hangs without it.
