devlink: Fix crash with CONFIG_NET_NS=n
'__net_initdata' becomes a no-op with CONFIG_NET_NS=y, but when this option is disabled it becomes '__initdata', which means the data can be freed after the initialization phase. This annotation is obviously incorrect for the devlink net device notifier block which is still registered after the initialization phase [1]. Fix this crash by removing the '__net_initdata' annotation. [1] general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0xcccccccccccccccc: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP CPU: 3 PID: 117 Comm: (udev-worker) Not tainted 6.4.0-rc1-custom-gdf0acdc59b09 #64 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS 1.16.2-1.fc37 04/01/2014 RIP: 0010:notifier_call_chain+0x58/0xc0 [...] Call Trace: <TASK> dev_set_mac_address+0x85/0x120 dev_set_mac_address_user+0x30/0x50 do_setlink+0x219/0x1270 rtnl_setlink+0xf7/0x1a0 rtnetlink_rcv_msg+0x142/0x390 netlink_rcv_skb+0x58/0x100 netlink_unicast+0x188/0x270 netlink_sendmsg+0x214/0x470 __sys_sendto+0x12f/0x1a0 __x64_sys_sendto+0x24/0x30 do_syscall_64+0x38/0x80 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x63/0xcd Fixes: e93c9378e33f ("devlink: change per-devlink netdev notifier to static one") Reported-by: Marek Szyprowski <m.szyprowski@samsung.com> Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/600ddf9e-589a-2aa0-7b69-a438f833ca10@samsung.com/ Tested-by: Marek Szyprowski <m.szyprowski@samsung.com> Signed-off-by: Ido Schimmel <idosch@nvidia.com> Reviewed-by: Jiri Pirko <jiri@nvidia.com> Reviewed-by: Simon Horman <simon.horman@corigine.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20230515162925.1144416-1-idosch@nvidia.com Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>
