Florian Fainelli b07ac98946 net: dsa: Fix stale cpu_switch reference after unbind then bind 
Commit 9520ed8fb8 ("net: dsa: use cpu_switch instead of ds[0]")
replaced the use of dst->ds[0] with dst->cpu_switch since that is
functionally equivalent, however, we can now run into an use after free
scenario after unbinding then rebinding the switch driver.

The use after free happens because we do correctly initialize
dst->cpu_switch the first time we probe in dsa_cpu_parse(), then we
unbind the driver: dsa_dst_unapply() is called, and we rebind again.
dst->cpu_switch now points to a freed "ds" structure, and so when we
finally dereference it in dsa_cpu_port_ethtool_setup(), we oops.

To fix this, simply set dst->cpu_switch to NULL in dsa_dst_unapply()
which guarantees that we always correctly re-assign dst->cpu_switch in
dsa_cpu_parse().

README 

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

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
