xen-netback: defer xenvif_mcast_addr_list_free()
In order for the function to legitimately avoid locking/RCU, it needs to run after all TX/RX processing has finished/stopped: Lookups happen from xenvif_start_xmit(), while adds/removes happen from xenvif_tx_action() (called out of xenvif_poll()). Move the call out of xenvif_disconnect_data() (the call to the function from connect()'s error path doesn't require any cleaning up there), and put it past the synchronization point in backend_disconnect(). This is XSA-527 / CVE-2026-100081. Fixes: b17075d5c198 ("xen-netback: fix race condition on XenBus disconnect") Reported-by: kerhunt <kerhunt@proton.me> Signed-off-by: Jan Beulich <jbeulich@suse.com> Reviewed-by: Juergen Gross <jgross@suse.com>
