When I open the LOCKDEP config and run these steps:

modprobe 8021q
vconfig add eth2 20

========================================================================

The reason is that all of the addr_lock_key for vlan dev have the same class,
so if we change the status for vlan dev, the vlan dev and its real dev will
hold the same class of addr_lock_key together, so the warning happened.

we should distinguish the lock depth for vlan dev and its real dev.

v1-&gt;v2: Convert the vlan_netdev_addr_lock_key to an array of eight elements, which
	could support to add 8 vlan id on a same vlan dev, I think it is enough for current
	scene, because a netdev's name is limited to IFNAMSIZ which could not hold 8 vlan id,
	and the vlan dev would not meet the same class key with its real dev.

	The new function vlan_dev_get_lockdep_subkey() will return the subkey and make the vlan
	dev could get a suitable class key.

v2-&gt;v3: According David's suggestion, I use the subclass to distinguish the lock key for vlan dev
	and its real dev, but it make no sense, because the difference for subclass in the
	lock_class_key doesn't mean that the difference class for lock_key, so I use lock_depth
	to distinguish the different depth for every vlan dev, the same depth of the vlan dev
	could have the same lock_class_key, I import the MAX_LOCK_DEPTH from the include/linux/sched.h,
	I think it is enough here, the lockdep should never exceed that value.

v3-&gt;v4: Add a huge array of locking keys will waste static kernel memory and is not a appropriate method,
	we could use _nested() variants to fix the problem, calculate the depth for every vlan dev,
	and use the depth as the subclass for addr_lock_key.

[ Upstream commit fc0d48b8fb449ca007b2057328abf736cb516168 ]

Currently, if the card supports CTAG acceleration we do not
account for the vlan header even if we are configuring an
8021AD vlan.  This may not be best since we'll do software
tagging for 8021AD which will cause data copy on skb head expansion
Configure the length based on available hw offload capabilities and
vlan protocol.

<title>vlan: Set correct source MAC address with TX VLAN offload enabled</title>

[ Upstream commit dd38743b4cc2f86be250eaf156cf113ba3dd531a ]

With TX VLAN offload enabled the source MAC address for frames sent using the
VLAN interface is currently set to the address of the real interface. This is
wrong since the VLAN interface may be configured with a different address.

The bug was introduced in commit 2205369a314e12fcec4781cc73ac9c08fc2b47de
("vlan: Fix header ops passthru when doing TX VLAN offload.").

This patch sets the source address before calling the create function of the
real interface.

[ Upstream commit 2205369a314e12fcec4781cc73ac9c08fc2b47de ]

When the vlan code detects that the real device can do TX VLAN offloads
in hardware, it tries to arrange for the real device's header_ops to
be invoked directly.

But it does so illegally, by simply hooking the real device's
header_ops up to the VLAN device.

This doesn't work because we will end up invoking a set of header_ops
routines which expect a device type which matches the real device, but
will see a VLAN device instead.

Fix this by providing a pass-thru set of header_ops which will arrange
to pass the proper real device instead.

To facilitate this add a dev_rebuild_header().  There are
implementations which provide a -&gt;cache and -&gt;create but not a
-&gt;rebuild (f.e. PLIP).  So we need a helper function just like
dev_hard_header() to avoid crashes.

Use this helper in the one existing place where the
header_ops-&gt;rebuild was being invoked, the neighbour code.

With lots of help from Florian Westphal.

[ Upstream commit 3e3aac497513c669e1c62c71e1d552ea85c1d974 ]

egress_priority_map[] hash table updates are protected by rtnl,
and we never remove elements until device is dismantled.

We have to make sure that before inserting an new element in hash table,
all its fields are committed to memory or else another cpu could
find corrupt values and crash.

Add a protocol argument to the VLAN packet tagging functions. In case of HW
tagging, we need that protocol available in the ndo_start_xmit functions,
so it is stored in a new field in the skb. The new field fits into a hole
(on 64 bit) and doesn't increase the sks's size.

Rename the hardware VLAN acceleration features to include "CTAG" to indicate
that they only support CTAGs. Follow up patches will introduce 802.1ad
server provider tagging (STAGs) and require the distinction for hardware not
supporting acclerating both.

<title>netpoll: Fix __netpoll_rcu_free so that it can hold the rtnl lock</title>

__netpoll_rcu_free is used to free netpoll structures when the rtnl_lock is
already held.  The mechanism is used to asynchronously call __netpoll_cleanup
outside of the holding of the rtnl_lock, so as to avoid deadlock.
Unfortunately, __netpoll_cleanup modifies pointers (dev-&gt;np), which means the
rtnl_lock must be held while calling it.  Further, it cannot be held, because
rcu callbacks may be issued in softirq contexts, which cannot sleep.

Fix this by converting the rcu callback to a work queue that is guaranteed to
get scheduled in process context, so that we can hold the rtnl properly while
calling __netpoll_cleanup

Tested successfully by myself.
