Network devices can allocate reasources and private memory using
netdev_ops-&gt;ndo_init().  However, the release of these resources
can occur in one of two different places.

Either netdev_ops-&gt;ndo_uninit() or netdev-&gt;destructor().

The decision of which operation frees the resources depends upon
whether it is necessary for all netdev refs to be released before it
is safe to perform the freeing.

netdev_ops-&gt;ndo_uninit() presumably can occur right after the
NETDEV_UNREGISTER notifier completes and the unicast and multicast
address lists are flushed.

netdev-&gt;destructor(), on the other hand, does not run until the
netdev references all go away.

Further complicating the situation is that netdev-&gt;destructor()
almost universally does also a free_netdev().

This creates a problem for the logic in register_netdevice().
Because all callers of register_netdevice() manage the freeing
of the netdev, and invoke free_netdev(dev) if register_netdevice()
fails.

If netdev_ops-&gt;ndo_init() succeeds, but something else fails inside
of register_netdevice(), it does call ndo_ops-&gt;ndo_uninit().  But
it is not able to invoke netdev-&gt;destructor().

This is because netdev-&gt;destructor() will do a free_netdev() and
then the caller of register_netdevice() will do the same.

However, this means that the resources that would normally be released
by netdev-&gt;destructor() will not be.

Over the years drivers have added local hacks to deal with this, by
invoking their destructor parts by hand when register_netdevice()
fails.

Many drivers do not try to deal with this, and instead we have leaks.

Let's close this hole by formalizing the distinction between what
private things need to be freed up by netdev-&gt;destructor() and whether
the driver needs unregister_netdevice() to perform the free_netdev().

netdev-&gt;priv_destructor() performs all actions to free up the private
resources that used to be freed by netdev-&gt;destructor(), except for
free_netdev().

netdev-&gt;needs_free_netdev is a boolean that indicates whether
free_netdev() should be done at the end of unregister_netdevice().

Now, register_netdevice() can sanely release all resources after
ndo_ops-&gt;ndo_init() succeeds, by invoking both ndo_ops-&gt;ndo_uninit()
and netdev-&gt;priv_destructor().

And at the end of unregister_netdevice(), we invoke
netdev-&gt;priv_destructor() and optionally call free_netdev().

In functions team_nl_send_port_list_get() and
team_nl_send_options_get(), pointer skb keeps the return value of
nlmsg_new(). When the call to genlmsg_put() fails, the memory is not
freed(). This will result in memory leak bugs.

Conflicts were simply overlapping changes.  In the net/ipv4/route.c
case the code had simply moved around a little bit and the same fix
was made in both 'net' and 'net-next'.

In the net/sched/sch_generic.c case a fix in 'net' happened at
the same time that a new argument was added to qdisc_hash_add().

Commit f6988cb63a4e ("team: don't call netdev_change_features under
team-&gt;lock") fixed the issue calling netdev_change_features under
team-&gt;lock for team_compute_features.

But there are still two places where it calls netdev_change_features
under team-&gt;lock, team_port_add and team_port_del. It may cause a
dead lock when the slave port with LRO enabled is added.

This patch is to fix this dead lock by moving netdev_change_features
out of team_port_add and team_port_del, and call it after unlocking
the team lock.

<title>team: use ETH_MAX_MTU as max mtu</title>

This restores the ability to set a team device's mtu to anything higher
than 1500. Similar to the reported issue with bonding, the team driver
calls ether_setup(), which sets an initial max_mtu of 1500, while the
underlying hardware can handle something much larger. Just set it to
ETH_MAX_MTU to support all possible values, and the limitations of the
underlying devices will prevent setting anything too large.

<content type='text'>
In commit 18bfb924f000 ("net: introduce default neigh_construct/destroy
ndo calls for L2 upper devices") we added these ndos to stacked devices
such as team and bond, so that calls will be propagated to mlxsw.

However, previous commit removed the reliance on these ndos and no new
users of these ndos have appeared since above mentioned commit. We can
therefore safely remove this dead code.

In commit 18bfb924f000 ("net: introduce default neigh_construct/destroy
ndo calls for L2 upper devices") we added these ndos to stacked devices
such as team and bond, so that calls will be propagated to mlxsw.

However, previous commit removed the reliance on these ndos and no new
users of these ndos have appeared since above mentioned commit. We can
therefore safely remove this dead code.

The network device operation for reading statistics is only called
in one place, and it ignores the return value. Having a structure
return value is potentially confusing because some future driver could
incorrectly assume that the return value was used.

Fix all drivers with ndo_get_stats64 to have a void function.
