Parav Pandit 99b5382bff devlink: Hold rtnl lock while reading netdev attributes
[ Upstream commit b187c9b417 ]

A netdevice of a devlink port can be moved to different net namespace
than its parent devlink instance.
This scenario occurs when devlink reload is not used.

When netdevice is undergoing migration to net namespace, its ifindex
and name may change.

In such use case, devlink port query may read stale netdev attributes.

Fix it by reading them under rtnl lock.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
