From 10cc2b50eb4b01ca4dc014af2094d28b4ebe20d7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Herbert Xu Date: Fri, 5 Mar 2010 21:03:35 +0000 Subject: bridge: Fix RCU race in br_multicast_stop Thanks to Paul McKenny for pointing out that it is incorrect to use synchronize_rcu_bh to ensure that pending callbacks have completed. Instead we should use rcu_barrier_bh. Reported-by: Paul E. McKenney Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu Signed-off-by: David S.
