Before [1], When MAC address of the netdevice is changed, default GID is
supposed to get deleted and added back which affects the node and/or port
GUID in below sequence.
netdevice_event()
-> NETDEV_CHANGEADDR
default_del_cmd()
del_netdev_default_ips()
bond_delete_netdev_default_gids()
ib_cache_gid_set_default_gid()
ib_cache_gid_del()
add_cmd()
[..]
However, ib_cache_gid_del() was not getting invoked in non bonding
scenarios because event_ndev and rdma_ndev are same.
Therefore, fix such condition to ignore checking upper device when event
ndev and rdma_dev are same; similar to bond_set_netdev_default_gids().
Which this fix ib_cache_gid_del() is invoked correctly; however
ib_cache_gid_del() doesn't find the default GID for deletion because
find_gid() was given default_gid = false with
GID_ATTR_FIND_MASK_DEFAULT set.
But it was getting overwritten by ib_cache_gid_set_default_gid() later
on as part of add_cmd().
Therefore, mac address change used to work for default GID.
With refactor series [1], this incorrect behavior is detected.
Therefore,
when deleting default GID, set default_gid and set MASK flag.
when deleting IP based GID, clear default_gid and set MASK flag.

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.
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.
